A rare cause of intermittent dysphagia: giant fibrovascular polyp of the proximal esophagus.

Fibrovascular polyps account for only 0.5-1% of all benign esophageal tumors and causes intermittent dysphagia. The patient was a 63-year-old gentleman with gradually progressive intermittent dysphagia of 40 days duration. Investigations revealed a submucosal tumor of the proximal esophagus causing luminal compromise. Excision was performed through a cervical esophagotomy and specimen was subject to histopathological examination. Postoperative recovery was uneventful and he was completely relieved of his symptoms.

Dysphagia and obstructive sleep apnoea in Madelung's disease.

Madelung's disease is a benign disorder characterized by the presence of lipomata in the head and neck areas. It is disfiguring for the sufferer and is usually asymptomatic. Dysphagia and airway obstruction are rare presentations. Early surgical excision is recommended to exclude sinister pathology and to improve patient function. This is the first report (according to our literature search) of a patient who presented with dysphagia and obstructive sleep apnoea and in whom surgical intervention resulted in an improvement in both these symptoms.
