Esophageal squamous papillomas with focal dermal hypoplasia and eosinophilic esophagitis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Focal dermal hypoplasia (FDH) is a rare disorder of the mesodermal and ectodermal tissues. Here we present an eight-year-old female known to have FDH who presents with poor weight gain and dysphagia. She was diagnosed with multiple esophageal papillomas and eosinophilic esophagitis. She was successfully treated with argon plasma coagulation and ingested fluticasone propionate, which has not been described previously in a child.

متن کاملThe Mural Form of Eosinophilic Esophagitis Is Accompanied by Superficial Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EE) is an increasingly recognized primary clinicopathologic disorder of the esophagus which lacks a specific etiology. Most reports on EE have been limited to the esophagus mucosa. We present a 56-year-old man with the mural form of EE and superficial squamous cell carcinoma in the esophagus. The eosinophils diffusely invaded the full-thickness of the esophagus, mainly...

GGS: Goltz-Gorlin syndrome INTRODUCTION Focal dermal hypoplasia, also known as GoltzGorlin syndrome (GGS) or Goltz syndrome, arises from a rare genetic abnormality in the WNT/b-catenin signaling pathway first described by Goltz et al in 1962. Molecularly, Goltz syndrome is caused by a mutation or deletion in PORCN that occurs sporadically or through X-linked dominant inheritance. We report on a...
متن کاملEsophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma with Marked Eosinophil Infiltration
We report a case of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) with marked eosinophil infiltration which was identified postoperatively in the esophageal wall in areas not surrounding the SCC. The eosinophil infiltration was seen in the submucosa, muscle and adventitia, but not in the mucosa. Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a pathological condition defined as eosinophil infiltration within the ...
متن کاملA case of eosinophilic esophagitis discovered with positron emission tomography imaging: a case report
INTRODUCTION Eosinophilic esophagitis was first reported in 1978, and since then it has been increasingly recognized as one of the major etiologies for dysphagia, food impaction, and food regurgitation. To the best of our knowledge, no case of eosinophilic esophagitis (excluding esophageal eosinophilia not responsive to proton pump inhibitor treatment) has previously been demonstrated on the ba...
