Hello ! I'm afraid your suspicion may prove correct. Difficulty in swallowing, loss of weight, and a UGI endoscopy showing a 'proliferative growth in the esophagus' do point toward an esophageal tumor. However you'll have to wait for the biopsy report to know the exact cause of this growth. Do write in for more info.
