Abstract

We present five cases with gastro (four cases) and intestinal (one case) myogenic tumors with a marked extraluminal growth. In all cases, incidental discovery of an asymptomatic mass prompted further examination. One of three cases with a pedunculated growth mimicked a gallbladder cancer. The mass of a jejunal leiomyoma case changed markedly in location under probe compression. Color Doppler sonography confirmed not only the hypervascular nature of the mass but also feeding and draining vessels.
