Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 11
Abstract
Abstract: Inflammatory fibroid polyps are benign tumors which arise from the submucosa of the stomach, small intestine, large intestine and oesophagus. They form polypoid lesion and present as intussusception or intestinal obstruction. Case history: We present a case of inflammatory fibroid polyp in a male patient of 52 years age. The polyp was arising from the lumen of ileum and presented as intestinal obstruction. Conclusion: Histopathological examination plays an important role in the diagnosis of intestinal fibroid polyp in cases presenting as intussusception or intestinal obstruction, as radiological and clinical features have no distinctive role in the diagnosis of these lesions.
