Venous Malformation of the Esophagus.

Venous malformations are an extremely infrequent condition in the gastrointestinal tract, particularly in the esophagus. We report a rare case of an adult with an asymptomatic mass located in the mediastinum and in whom the diagnosis and treatment of a venous malformation of the esophagus was performed through a thoracoscopic approach. When dealing with a hypervascularized submucosal esophageal tumor, venous malformations can be among the differential diagnoses.

Only two cases of esophageal adenocarcinoma after gastric sleeve have been described, none of them with preoperative endoscopic evaluation.
