AB Benign  tumors  of  the  esophagus  are  rare  cases  encountered  by  a  variety  of  specialists  including  gastroenterologists,  general  surgeons,  and  thoracic  surgeons.  The  clinical  presentation  of  these  lesions  may  vary  from  asymptomatic,  incidentally  discovered  tumors  (most  common)  to  large  lesions  resulting  in  important  dysphagia  or  airway  compromise.  The  development  of  minimally  invasive  approaches  to  esophageal  pathology  over  the  last  decade  has  expanded  the  diagnostic  and  treatment  options  for  these  lesions.
