Abstract
Small bowel neoplasms are difficult to identify. Conventional roentgenographic methods may report false-negative results in 23-44% of cases. We describe a symptomatic patient with a jejunal leiomyoma detected by enteroscopy after radiographic evaluation was equivocal. Enteroscopy can be an effective diagnostic modality in selected patients with small bowel tumors.Entities:
