Dysphagia Unmasked: A Case Report of Esophageal Leiomyomatosis.

Esophageal leiomyomatosis, an uncommon benign condition marked by the proliferation of smooth muscle cells within the esophageal wall, frequently presents diagnostic challenges due to its rarity and diverse clinical manifestations. In this case report, we document the clinical journey of a 28-year-old female who presented with a two-year history of progressive dysphagia. Upon physical examination and endoscopy, a submucosal mass in the lower esophagus was identified, prompting further imaging and subsequent biopsy, which confirmed the diagnosis of leiomyomatosis. A multidisciplinary team recommended surgical intervention, leading to a minimally invasive laparoscopic resection of the esophageal leiomyomas. Postoperatively, the patient experienced a substantial improvement in her dysphagia and was discharged in stable condition. This case not only underscores the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in achieving an accurate diagnosis but also highlights the successful application of minimally invasive surgical techniques for alleviating symptoms in esophageal leiomyomatosis patients. The rarity and varied clinical presentation of this condition emphasize the need for individualized and tailored management strategies.
