Abdom Imaging. 1999 Mar-Apr;24(2):109-10. doi: 10.1007/s002619900455.

Abstract

We present a case of giant fibrovascular polyp of the esophagus with predominant fat contents. Both computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of this rare tumor are reported. The employment of CT and MRI in the presurgical evaluation of fibrovascular esophageal polyp is suggested.
