Ethmoid glomangioma and oncogenic osteomalacia: a case report.

Background: Glomangioma is a benign tumor of mesenchymal origin, derived from the glomus body. It is responsible for the thermal regulation of the dermis. The occurrence of oncogenic osteomalacia related to glomangioma is rare.

Association between endoscopic findings and histopathological confirmation in patients with suspicion of eosinophilic esophagitis.

Background: The diagnosis of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is performed by the detection of 15 or more eosinophils per field in an esophageal biopsy sample, but the endoscopic findings alone are not validated for a diagnosis of the disease.

Objective: To evaluate the association between the endoscopic findings and histopathological diagnosis in patients with suspected EoE in endoscopy.

Methods: A retrospective study of 24 patients with suspicion of EoE during endoscopy was held.
