Non‐Hodgkin’s lymphoma and, rarely, Hodgkin’s lymphoma may involve the esophagus. Esophageal lymphoma may be manifested on barium studies by submucosal masses, polypoid lesions, enlarged folds, or strictures [132]. Spindle cell carcinoma is another rare tumor characterized by a bulky, polypoid intraluminal mass that expands the lumen of the esophagus without causing obstruction [133]. Other rare malignant tumors involving the esophagus include leiomyosarcomas and malignant melanomas [132].
