Bleeding ileal schwannoma.
1996
: We report a case of ileal schwannoma who presented with bleeding per rectum. Three-vessel angiogram was the only diagnostic investigation, and revealed tumor blush in the mid-ileal region. On exploration, an intraluminal mass was found in the mid-ileal region along with a feeding vessel in the mesentery. Resection of the involved ileum with end-to-end anastomosis was done. Histopathology showed benign schwannoma of ileum involving the submucosa, muscularis propria and serosa.
