Case description

Glycogenic acanthosis of the esophagus. This condition is asymptomatic and an incidental finding. These nodules or plaques result from accumulation of excess glycogen in mature squamous cells of the upper epithelium. Glycogenic acanthosis of the esophagus and gastroesophageal reflux Although its etiology and pathogenesis still remain elusive, glycogenic acanthosis may be related to gastroesophageal reflux.
