Abstract

A squamous cell papilloma of esophagus is regarded as a rare tumor, and one of the distal esophagus is known to be not changed into a malignant neoplasm although squamous papilloma of the larynx, cervix and the upper esophagus may be associated with squamous cell carcinoma. We report the first case of a squamous papilloma associated with hig grade dysplasia at the lower esophagus. We think this case may have an important implication in the surveillance and management of esophageal papilloma found at endoscopy.
