Abstract
The patient was a 59-year-old male with 1.5 months of diarrhea, cramping, and 5-lb weight loss. On physical examination he was found to have a mobile 4 x 6 cm RUQ mass. He underwent a colonoscopy and biopsy. Later, a right colectomy with attached segment of small bowel was done. On opening the specimen a circumferential mass was seen in the small bowel extending into the proximal cecum. The mass itself occupied approximately 20 cm segment of the bowel and on sectioning it displayed a homogenous solid, white-tan, fleshy appearance. Few peri-colonic lymph nodes were found (0.8–2.0 cm).
