RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Multiple squamous hyperplastic-fibrous inflammatory polyps of the oesophagus: a new feature of eosinophilic oesophagitis? JF Journal of Clinical Pathology JO J Clin Pathol FD BMJ Publishing Group Ltd and Association of Clinical Pathologists SP 845 OP 846 DO 10.1136/jcp.2009.066100 VO 62 IS 9 A1 D J Mulder A1 S Gander A1 D J Hurlbut A1 D A Soboleski A1 R G Smith A1 C J Justinich YR 2009 UL http://jcp.bmj.com/content/62/9/845.abstract AB This report describes the unusual case of a 12-year-old boy with multiple polyps in the oesophagus and concurrent eosinophilic oesophagitis (EoE). Polyps were of a fibrous-inflammatory composition featuring eosinophils, mast cells, hyperplastic epithelium and fibrosis, which are all features described with EoE. EoE is an increasingly recognised clinicopathological disorder characterised by large numbers of eosinophils infiltrating the oesophageal mucosa. Polyps in the oesophagus are rare, have not previously been associated with EoE, and may represent a new feature of the disease.
