Abstract:
A case of large pedunculated gastric leiomyoma with intermittent prolapse into the duodenum, causing a somewhat confusing clinical picture is presented. Ultrasound-, CT- and barium studies clearly showed the origin and extent of the tumor. Sonography was the only imaging method that showed intermittent prolapse of the tumor during examination. Imaging studies did not allow prediction of the benign nature of the tumor.
