“…By contrast, none of the EoE patients had a dominant stricture, which is commonly found in patients with EIPD without EoE. 7 In addition, EoE patients are younger than patients who have EIPD alone, and the patient described was a 47-year-old man. Unfortunately, data regarding the patient's alcohol or tobacco consumption, or history of food allergies, which could help differentiate EoE plus EIPD from EIPD alone, are not given in the case reported by Sobani and Parasher.…”

Highlights Learning Point #1 : Small ulcers on esophagography are usually attributable to herpes esophagitis and drug-induced esophagitis. Although rare, Crohn’s disease may produce small apthoid ulcers. Large ulcers are usually attributable to CMV or HIV esophagitis. Learning Point #2 : The early findings of candida are plaques that mimic glycogenic acanthosis. When plaques are seen, consider early candida or glycogenic acanthosis. When shaggy esophagus is identified, consider candidiasis. Learning Point #3 : Varices and varicoid esophageal carcinoma may appear similar on imaging. The presence of obstruction and lack of change with time and position should sway the Radiologist to diagnosing varicoid esophageal carcinoma. Learning Point #4 : Transverse esophageal lines should suggest the entities of feline esophagus and idiopathic eosinophilic esophagitis. Learning Point #5 : Esophageal contour abnormalities may suggest extrinsic or intrinsic lesions. Extrinsic lesions include aberrant vessels. Intrinsic lesions include intramural pseudodiverticulosis, gastroesophageal reflux, Barrett’s esophagus, and esophageal cancer.

Background Intramural pseudodiverticulosis of the esophagus (EIPD) is a rare disease leading to dysphagia, chest pain, and weight loss. The diagnosis is difficult, and the disease can be confounded with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). We present a patient with esophageal intramural pseudodiverticulosis and a literature review. Case report The 45-year-old white caucasian woman with a history of nicotine and alcohol abuse had progressive hoarseness and severe dysphagia for solid food. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) showed proximal esophageal stenosis, thrush esophagitis, and mucosal alteration with trachealization suspicious of EoE. However, repeated bouginage EGD and barium swallow revealed typical signs of esophageal intramural pseudodiverticulosis (EIPD). The patient was treated successfully by bougingage, acid suppression, and antifungal therapy. The literature analysis revealed the characteristics of EIPD according to age, sex, risk factors, and therapy modalities. Conclusion The case report and the literature overview suggest that EIPD can be confounded with EoE.
