Figure 1A 65-year-old woman presented with a history of long-standing dysphagia. During endoscopy, a stenosing verrucous lesion was found in the middle third of the esophagus.
Figure 2The esophagogastrectomy specimen revealed a reddish, plate-like, exophytic tumor, 11 cm in length, located at 2.5 cm from the cardioesophageal junction.
Figure 3Histologically, the tumor was composed of non-branching, filiform papillae with a thick layer of parakeratosis on the surface. In depth, the neoplasm showed a pushing border.
