[Inflammatory fibroid polyp of the stomach as an unusual differential diagnosis of epigastric tumor]
Abstract
We describe the case of a 5 months old infant with an inflammatory fibroid polyp of the stomach. The girl presented with inflammatory symptoms and a tumor in the upper abdomen which was confirmed by sonography and computer-tomography. This very rare benign tumor has not yet been described in an infant.
