Leiomyoma of the Small Intestine

Intestine Small Leiomyoma

CONCLUSION: Jejunal leiomyoma should be considered in a child with neurofibromatosis presenting with gastro-intestinal bleeding. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Conclusion Jejunal leiomyoma should be considered in a child with neurofibromatosis presenting with gastro-intestinal bleeding. [link.springer.com]

It can present as a small submucosal nodule with arterial enhancement (image) and sometimes they lead to intussusception. GIST Typical GIST in the ileum presenting as an exophytic tumor. [radiologyassistant.nl]

  • Splenectomy

    Liver biopsy and sampling of nodes outside the field of resection are important, although splenectomy is not indicated. In patients with localised disease, resection of the involved bowel with a wide margin of adjacent mesentery is performed. [surgwiki.com]

  • Melena

    Abstract A 41-year-old woman visited a local doctor with the chief complaint of massive melena. Upper and lower gastrointestinal endoscopy as well as abdominal computed tomography failed to reveal the source of the bleeding. [jstage.jst.go.jp]

    In the case of leiomyoma of the jejunum with massive enterorrhagia and melena reported below, the preoperative diagnosis was bleeding duodenal ulcer.Leiomyoma of the small intestine is rare. [nejm.org]

    Their clinical manifestations can include abdominal pain, diarrhea, melena, a palpable abdominal mass and weight loss. [academic.oup.com]

    disease (IPSID, Mediterranean lymphoma or diffuse small intestinal lymphoma ) Various genetic disorders are also associated with an increased incidence of small bowel tumors 1,2 : Peutz-Jeghers syndrome : hamartomatous polyps Gardner's syndrome : adenoma [radiopaedia.org]

    Following resectable nodal metastases, median survival is 15 years.With non-resectable intestinal disease or liver metastases, survivals are 5 and 3 years, respectively. [surgwiki.com]

  • Acute Abdomen

    We have presented a case with the rare complication of a free perforation between the tumor and the peritoneal cavity, causing an acute abdomen. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    We report a case of a 45 years old man with a perforate acute abdomen. At laparotomy, a 12 cm multilobulated firm mass, located 20 cm distal from Treitz ligament, was removed. Histological sections disclosed a jejunal leiomyoma. [ingentaconnect.com]

  • Suggestibility

    On surgery, a submucosal tumour was excised and histological examination suggested a diagnosis of "smooth muscle tumour of undetermined malignant potential". There were no recurrence of symptoms for 4 years after the operation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    On surgery, a submucosal tumour was excised and histological examination suggested a diagnosis of “smooth muscle tumour of undetermined malignant potential”. There were no recurrence of symptoms for 4 years after the operation. [link.springer.com]

    There were no features to suggestive of a neoplasm. Physical examination and lab tests were non-contributory except for a positive fecal occult blood. Fibro-optic colonoscopy revealed a moderate diverticular disease. [ispub.com]

    Small bowel contrast studies may suggest the presence of a tumour mass and CT may reveal bulky mesenteric nodes associated with thickened bowel or a large mass. [surgwiki.com]

    The appearance of the mass was suggestive of a colon tumor. Colonoscopy up to 60cm revealed no pathology and mucosal biopsies were normal. A diagnostic laparoscopy was performed 12 days after admission. [saudijgastro.com]

With MRI spatial resolution less than that achieved with conventional enteroclysis or CT, therefore it is less useful for evaluation of lesions Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is very sensitive and effective for the workup of neoplasms in the ampullary [radiopaedia.org]

Metastatis to small bowel is rare, treatment is chemotherapy and the prognosis is poor. [omicsonline.org]

Small noncancerous growths may be destroyed by treatments applied through a flexible viewing tube (endoscope—see Endoscopy ) inserted into the intestine. [merckmanuals.com]

A licensed medical professional should be consulted for diagnosis and treatment of any and all medical conditions. [limamemorial.org]

Treatment often involves surgery. Benign tumors usually don't grow back. [icdlist.com]

However, the relief is only temporary and the fibroids recur once the treatment is stopped. In addition, these treatments cause side effects similar to menopause. [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]

Metastatis to small bowel is rare, treatment is chemotherapy and the prognosis is poor. [omicsonline.org]

Outcome Prognosis depends on the stage of the disease and histological grade. Histological grade is determined by cellularity, nuclear atypia and number of mitoses. [surgwiki.com]

Prognosis of leiomyomas after surgery is excellent [ 2 ]. Conclusions Leiomyomas are infrequent tumors and few cases have been reported in the English literature. [npplweb.com]

(Etiology) The exact cause of Leiomyoma of Colon is unknown. Researchers have documented certain genetic changes within the tumor. However, cases where these specific genetic mutations have been observed are rare. [dovemed.com]

While duodenal ulcers and diverticulosis are certainly more common than symptomatic neoplasms of the small intestine, it is important to have a higher index of suspicion for additional etiologies, especially when irregularities of imaging studies are [academic.oup.com]

The literature is revised emphasizing issues of pathophysiology, specific characteristics and the treatment of this tumour. [jsurgacad.com]

Hence, a complete removal of the tumor is recommended How can Leiomyoma of Colon be Prevented? Currently, no known preventive methods exist for Leiomyoma of Colon. [dovemed.com]

With advanced disease, debulking or palliative resection is performed to prevent complications of bleeding or perforation, provided excessive removal of normal small bowel is avoided. [surgwiki.com]
