Popis: | Background-Aim Gastrointestinal angiolipomas are rare benign lipomatous lesions first described by Bowen in 1912 and differentiated histologically by Howard in 1960. Duodenal angiolipomas represent a rare pathological condition that can lead to severe gastrointestinal bleeding; they may be treated successfully surgically and occasionally endoscopically. We report the 3rd case of duodenal angiolipoma to be reported in the literature between 1964 and 2010. |
