A mediastinal eosinophilic adenoma misdiagnosed as an esophageal stromal tumor: A case report
This case underscores the importance of integrating imaging, laboratory tests, and histopathology for accurate diagnosis of mediastinal masses. Minimally invasive thoracoscopic surgery proved effective for resection, highlighting the need for tailored therapeutic approaches. In order to avoid such misdiagnosis, clinicians should make a definite pathological diagnosis before surgery as much as possible.
