Resumen en inglés | A 49yrs old, male patient presented progressive dysphagia during the last two years, initially to solids and, since two weeks, liquids he had lost 15 kilos. Esophagogram showed an intraluminal lesion with regular mucosa in the middle third of esophagus. The esophagoscopy exhibits regular mucosa up to the lesion, which did not alow passage. There was no evidence of linfonodal disease at CT scan. The hypothesis of esophageal leiomyoma led this patient a right posterior thoracotomy and enucleation of a 30 x 30 mm mass from the esophageal wall.
