pubmed:abstractText |
Granular cell tumor (GCT) is a rare lesion. Approximately 4% to 6% of these tumors occur in the gastrointestinal tract, one-third of them affecting the esophagus. Almost all GCTs are benign lesions. Approximately 1% to 3% are malignant. Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is a diagnostic support. The best treatment for esophageal GCT is not yet clear, whether surgical excision, periodic observation, endoscopic excision, or yttrium-aluminum-garnet (YAG) laser therapy.
