Four additional cases of squamous papilloma of the esophagus are reported. They were diagnosed and resected endoscopically by the excisional biopsy technique and confirmed histologically. A brief survey of the literature is included. This report is presented to stress the recognition and clinical implications of this entity.
A patient with two periventricular enhancing lesions on computed tomography subsequently demonstrated clearing of these abnormalities without treatment and a clinical course compatible with multiple sclerosis. CT scans obtained in disease processes associated with acute demyelination and alteration of the blood-brain barrier can show enhancing lesions. These lesions can initially be confused with primary or secondary neoplasms, enhancing infarcts or arteriovenous malformation. The differential diagnosis of enhancing lesions without significant mass effect should initially include the acute phase of multiple sclerosis and other demyelinating processes.
