Benign fibrous histiocytoma of the upper end of the Oesophagus in our knowledge has not been reported in the literature hence interesting to report. Sudden popping out of the pedunculated mass from upper end of the Oesophagus into the laryngopharynx with irrucdation after a cold drink giving rise to almost total dysphagia in a young, obese, female with hypothyroidism and hypertension is described here.
