[Neurogenic gastric tumours. Schwannomas and neurofibromas (author's transl)]

The literature concerning the definition, frequency, development and morphology of neurogenic gastric tumours is reviewed. The clinical, radiological and histological findings in eleven cases seen by the authors are described. The radiological differential diagnosis and errors in diagnosis are discussed. The significance of tumour perforation in making a type diagnosis is pointed out. There are few angiographic reports available at present.
