Abstract
We describe a benign diffuse neurofibroma of the pylorus, unassociated with von Recklinghausen's neurofibromatosis, which was a cause of pyloric stenosis; epigastric discomfort, vomiting, and weight loss of 60 lb were the most prominent symptoms. Partial gastrectomy resulted in a cure. The literature on nerve-sheath tumors of the stomach is reviewed.Entities:
