Purpose: The present retrospective study attempted to explore the optimal diagnosis and treatment of hFVPs. Research Design: The clinical records of 2 patients with giant, irregularly shaped hFVPs, who underwent several failed surgical procedures after inaccurate diagnosis, were reviewed. Finally, the patients were correctly diagnosed and successfully treated at Capital Medical University Beijing Friendship Hospital in different years, 2018 and 2020. Results: Case 1 was of a 43-year-old woman with 2\u00a0months of progressive dysphagia. Gastroenterologists overlooked the origin of her FVP, and decided to sever its narrowest point in the oesophagus through endoscopy. However, upon unsuccessful removal of the mass, a gastrotomy procedure was performed to extract the mass 7\u00a0days later. Symptoms recurred 3\u00a0months after the treatment, and a fibreoptic laryngoscopy confirmed hFVP in the patient at our department. A transcervical approach was used to sever the hypopharyngeal pedicle, achieve haemostasis and remove the oesophageal tumour. No recurrence was detected during the 2-year follow-up period after the treatment. Case 2 was of a 32-year-old man with dysphagia who had previously undergone transthoracic and transcervical oesophagotomy procedures within a gap of 3\u00a0months for the removal of FVP causing dysphagia. The hypopharyngeal pedicle was not diagnosed in the patient. The symptoms of dysphagia recurred 4 years after the treatment, and a fibreoptic laryngoscope confirmed hFVP at our department. The tumour was removed successfully through the transcervical approach. No recurrence was detected during the 6-months follow-up after surgery. Conclusion: In conclusion, the transcervical approach is suitable for achieving haemostasis and removing giant, irregularly shaped hFVPs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/01455613211046461","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,29]],"date-time":"2021-11-29T09:14:58Z","timestamp":1638177298000},"page":"374-378","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Diagnosis and Management of Giant Esophageal Fibrovascular Polyp With Hypopharyngeal Pedicle"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"101","author":[{"given":"Wan-Xin","family":"Li","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jia-Qi","family":"Bai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yan-Bo","family":"Dong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3296-5371","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Liang-Fa","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-01455613211046461","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0003489416672872"},{"key":"bibr2-01455613211046461","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.athoracsur.2005.05.106"},{"key":"bibr3-01455613211046461","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s40064-016-3144-y"},{"key":"bibr4-01455613211046461","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/000348949410301102"},{"key":"bibr5-01455613211046461","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3346\/jkms.2006.21.4.749"},{"issue":"19","key":"bibr6-01455613211046461","first-page":"3182","volume":"124","author":"Wang J","year":"2011","journal-title":"Chin Med J"},{"key":"bibr7-01455613211046461","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000081892"},{"key":"bibr8-01455613211046461","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.MLG.0000158351.00602.86"},{"key":"bibr9-01455613211046461","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0022215111001034"},{"key":"bibr10-01455613211046461","first-page":"670302","volume":"2015","author":"Haytoglu S","year":"2015","journal-title":"Case Rep Otolaryngol"},{"key":"bibr11-01455613211046461","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5144\/0256-4947.2008.217"},{"key":"bibr12-01455613211046461","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3748\/wjg.v19.i35.5936"}],"container-title":["Ear, Nose &amp; Throat Journal"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/01455613211046461","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1177\/01455613211046461","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/01455613211046461","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,28]],"date-time":"2026-04-28T18:35:30Z","timestamp":1777401330000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/01455613211046461"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,29]]},"references-count":12,"journal-issue":{"issue":"6","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2022,7]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/01455613211046461"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/01455613211046461","relation":{},"ISSN":["0145-5613","1942-7522"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0145-5613","type":"print"},{"value":"1942-7522","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,29]]}}}
