Jejunal schwannoma in neurofibromatosis: an unusual cause of massive gastrointestinal bleeding.

R Zhou1, J H Popkin, J Levey.   

Abstract

Small intestinal schwannomas are exceedingly rare tumors arising mainly from Schwann cells of Auerbach's plexus, and are usually solitary and asymptomatic. We report the first case of a jejunal schwannoma causing life-threatening gastrointestinal bleeding in a patient with neurofibromatosis.
