Abstract:
:Colonic schwannomas are rare gastrointestinal mesenchymal tumors, and only a limited number of cases has been reported. The occurrence of these tumors is less common in the large intestine than in the stomach. The present study reports a case of colonic schwannoma in a 62-year-old female patient with no specific symptoms. The patient was diagnosed with a mass in the ascending colon by colonoscopy and abdominal computed tomography scanning. A right hemicolectomy was performed. The postoperative pathological diagnosis was ascending schwannoma. This case is noteworthy as colonic schwannomas are rare and are typically treated as colon cancer. No recurrence of the lesion was observed after 24 months of follow-up.
