Introduction: Esophageal leiomyoma is the most common benign submucosal mesenchymal tumor of the esophagus, typically asymptomatic but can cause symptoms such as dysphagia, chest pain, or regurgitation when large. Diagnosis is often incidental, confirmed by imaging techniques like computed tomography (CT) and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), with surgical enucleation being the standard treatment.
Presentation Of Case: A 28-year-old male presented with a one-year history of persistent epigastric discomfort and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms unresponsive to proton pump inhibitors.

Primary esophageal small cell carcinoma (PESC) is a rare, extremely aggressive malignancy characterized by rapid growth, early metastasis, and poor prognosis. This study presents a case of early-stage PESC that was initially misdiagnosed as an esophageal leiomyoma, which was observed as a submucosal tumor during gastroscopy. The patient subsequently underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), which successfully achieved complete tumor resection.
