An esophageal mucosal bridge is a very rare endoscopic finding. The condition is also termed a double-lumen esophagus (1). The epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis, and optimal management of such a mucosal bridge remain poorly known. This condition has been reported to be due to reflux esophagitis (1), esophageal candidiasis (2), radiotherapy (3), Crohn’s disease (4), variceal sclerotherapy (5), and fundoplication (6). Its clinical presentation likely depends on both the mechanical effect of the bridge itself and the underlying disease. Few studies have reported the management of this condition. Here we describe a very rare case of successful endoscopic treatment of an esophageal mucosal bridge in a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).
