Diffuse ileal ganglioneuromatosis mimicking a gastrointestinal stromal tumor: A case report

This report showed a rare case of diffuse IGNM not associated with NF1 or MEN2b. Preoperative radiological examination suggested an intestinal GIST, yet the final diagnosis of diffuse IGNM was made according to the pathological examination of the resected specimen. Although the prevalence of ganglioneuromatosis is low, this condition should be considered in the differential diagnosis of intestinal mass in adults.
