Abstract
A 58-year-old male was diagnosed esophageal hemangioma during a endoscopy in regular examination. The patient was referred to the department of gastroenterology in our hospital to treatment. Combined endoscopic band ligation (EBL) and endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) was performed for diagnostic treatment. Histopathological results revealed hemangioma. Even though several approaches such as esophagectomy, endoscopic removal, sclerotherapy, and laser therapy have been used to remove the esophageal hemangiomas, recently less invasive methods were preferred. Here we describe a case of esophageal hemangioma removed by EBL & EMR.

Abstract
Hemangioma of the esophagus is a rare form of benign esophageal tumor. It usually presents as a single lesion located in the lower third of the esophagus and is mostly asymptomatic. However, it may occasionally cause hematemesis and/or obstruction. Surgical resection is the conventional treatment modality for managing esophageal hemangioma, but less invasive approaches such as endoscopic therapy are recently becoming more widely employed. Herein, we report a case of a 54-year-old man who presented with an esophageal hemangioma that was successfully treated by endoscopic mucosal resection without any complications.

Abstract
Hemangiomas that arise in cervical esophagus are extremely rare, representing 3.3% of all benign esophageal tumors. Although endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and potassium titanyl phosphate/yttrium aluminum garnet (KTP/YAG) laser therapy have been used with success for small tumors, the safety and efficacy in the case of large tumors remains uncertain. We report the successful resection of cervical esophageal hemangioma through a cervical esophagotomy in a patient with thyroid cancer who needed a cervical collar incision.
