The patient was a 51-year-old female who presented with shortness of breath, low appetite, weight loss, and thoracic discomfort for a year. A CT scan of the thorax revealed an esophageal mass measuring 5cm, with no other specific pathology. She underwent a gastroscopy, which demonstrated a submucosal finding at a depth of 20 cm, with no lumen narrowing. The finding was biopsied under endoscopic ultrasound, and esophageal leiomyoma was diagnosed.
