        Esophageal leiomyomas are benign tumors, which are resected by esophageal enucleation when they are larger than 5 cm, or in lesions of any size that are symptomatic or suspicious of malignancy. Resection has traditionally been performed by the technique of open enucleation; however, minimally invasive surgery has emerged as a technique with great advantages, and especially robotic technology seems to offer advantages. We report a case of esophageal leiomyoma of the middle esophagus with enucleation using a robot-assisted thoracoscopic technique. Intraoperative esophagoscopy and transillumination were useful adjuncts to identify the esophagus and to develop an extra mucosal dissection plane which with robotic assistance appear to minimize intraoperative risks among them, potentially the possibility of mucosal injury, and improving postoperative recovery time.
