  1. Mimics of Neoplasia in the GI Tract Slide Seminar Ismail Matalka Ayat Aloqaily School of Medicine & King Abdullah University Hospital Jordan University of Science and Technology

  2. Clinical Data • A 55 year old male previously healthy. • Presented with epigastric abdominal pain. • Clinical examination is unremarkable. • Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed small hiatal hernia, bulge and swelling at the gastroesophageal junction .

  3. Histology

  4. Differential Diagnosis • Viral infection (CMV). • Poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. • Lymphoma (DLBCL) • Melanoma • Leiomyosarcoma or GIST

  5. Immunohistochemistry • CK, CAM5.2, HMWCK,CK5/6, P63 • EMA • CMV, HSV • Vimentin • P53, P16 • SMA, Desmin, CD117, Cyclin‐D1 • CD31, CD34 • LCA, CD68, CD1a, PAX5, CD138, CD3, CD15, CD30,ALK • Melan‐A, S100, HMB45 • Chromogranin, Synaptophysin.

  6. Diagnosis Benign Bizarre Stromal Cells of the esophagus.

  7. Follow‐up Biopsy

  8. Follow‐up biopsy

  9. Discussion • Atypical stromal cells are commonly seen in tissues such as vagina and nasal cavity, breast, genitourinary and GI ulcers and polyps and they are known pitfalls for misdiagnosis of malignancy. • Recognition of the bizarre stromal cells will prevent a potentially serious diagnostic pitfall. • Bizarre stromal cells in the esophagus show no sex predilection. The mean age is 44. Patients usually present with abdominal distension, regurgitation, heart‐burn and epigastric pain.* • Endoscopic examination mainly shows ulcers or polyp like structure (mostly less than 2cm) at the GEJ.

  11. • The largest group of bizarre stromal cells described in the GI are present in inflammatory pseudopolyps in cases of IBD (mainly ulcerative colitis). • Bizarre stromal cells in the esophagus is an uncommon finding invariably seen in distal esophagus usually in association with inflammatory polyps, chronic ulcers, reflux esophagitis and granulation tissue. • Right diagnosis helps in avoiding unnecessary excessive treatment, like esophagectomy, gastrectomy and esophago‐gastrectomy. • Awareness of the presence of atypical stromal cells in the esophagus and gastrointestinal tract is crucial to avoid misinterpretation of invasive malignancy.
