Abstract

Schwannomas are rare tumours of the digestive tract that arise from the Schwann cells of the gastrointestinal neural plexus. Upper endoscopy is not always helpful in these exophytically growing submucosal tumors. Cross-sectional imaging may be usefull adjunct in the detection and characterization of these tumor types. Computed tomographic features of a 56 yrs old male case with gastric schwannoma were reported.

Özet

Schwannoma, gastrointestinal duvar nöral pleksusunun Schwann hücrelerinden kaynaklanan, sindirim sisteminin mezenkim kaynaklı, nadir tümörlerinden biridir. Üst gastrointestinal sistem endoskopisi ilk değerlendirme için önemli olmakla beraber ekzofitik uzanım gösteren subserozal lezyonlarda tanısal olmayabilir. Bu durumda; kesitsel görüntüleme yöntemleri tümörün karakterizasyonu ve komşu organlar ile olan ilişkisini göstermede faydalı olabilir. Biz 56 yaşındaki bir erkek hastada; nadir görülen gastrik schwannomun bilgisayarlı tomografi bulgularını literatür bilgileri eşliğinde sunmayı amaçladık.
