Core Tip	Benign esophageal tumors have a lower detection rate due to the fact that most patients are asymptomatic. The majority of these benign lesions are asymptomatic, and diagnoses are often made incidentally during investigations for other symptoms. Although biopsy or excision is required for a definitive diagnosis, understanding the endoscopic appearances provides essential help for differential diagnosis. In epithelial lesions, the frequency of occurrence was in the following order: glycogenic acanthosis, heterotopic gastric mucosa, squamous papilloma, hyperplastic polyp, ectopic sebaceous gland and xanthoma. In subepithelial lesions, the order was as follows: hemangioma, leiomyoma, dysphagia aortica and granular cell tumor.
