Glycogenic acanthosis of the esophagus is an uncommon benign change of the esophagus with a distinctive endoscopic appearance.
General
- Uncommon - seen 3.5% of consecutive 2328 upper endoscopies.[1]
- Benign.[2]
- May be associated with GERD;[1] however, lesions do not resolve with PPI treatment.[2]
- Possible association with ingestion of hot liquids.[3]
Gross/endoscopic
- Distinctive endoscopic appearance - grey/white raised lesion.[3]

Microscopic
Features:[3]
- Squamous epithelium with:
- Superficial clearing of the cytoplasm.
- Thickening.
