Abstract
Esophageal leiomyoma is the most common benign esophageal tumor. Thoracoscopic enucleation is currently a preferred approach for the most of these lesions. Although many reports are available in the English literature, no reports has been published in the Turkish literature so far. In this article, we reported a case of a 69-year-old female with a leiomyoma of the esophagus enucleated using videoassisted thoracic surgery.
