摘 要:We report a case of jejunoileal intussusception in a 42-year-old patient with Crohn s disease caused by a gastrointestinal stromal tumor. The patient complained of vague diffuse abdominal pain for a period of 4 mo. Intussusception was suspected at computer tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scans. Segmental resection of the small intestine was performed. Pathological examination of the surgical specimen revealed a gastrointestinal stromal tumor as well as aphthous ulcerations and areas of inflammation, which were characteristic of Crohn s disease. This is the f irst report of small bowel intussusception due to a gastrointestinal stromal tumor coexisting with Crohn s disease.
