Fibrovascular polyps of the esophagus and hypopharynx are benign tumors of the upper digestive tract. The majority of these polyps are located in the upper part of the esophagus but the hypopharyngeal fibrovascular polyps are only rarely seen. Most of them are surgically treated and this is usually done through a cervical incision, although some of them have been removed endoscopically. The authors report here on a case of a 63-yr-old-man with a giant fibrovascular polyp of the hypopharynx that extended into the stomach; this polyp was removed through simultaneous transcervical and transabdominal approaches because of the huge size of the polyp. The man presented with progressive dysphagia of 1 yr duration. The preoperative assessment revealed a giant polyp arising from the left arytenoid and extending into the stomach. The dimension of the polyp was about 26 x 10 x 4 cm. The complete resection of the polyp with the simultaneous transcervical and transabdominal approaches was successful, and it was diagnosed as a fibrovascular polyp. The patient has been followed up without any recurrence for 6 month postoperatively.
