Malignant esophageal neoplasms are much more common than benign esophageal neoplasms, especially if the patient is symptomatic.
Pathology
- esophageal carcinoma (90%)
- esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC)
- esophageal spindle cell carcinoma

- esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC)
- esophageal neuroendocrine tumors (1%)
- esophageal lymphoma (rare; <1% of gastrointestinal lymphoma)
