Differential Diagnosis
- Gastrointestinal leiomyoma:
- Most common in the esophagus, accounting for 75% of mesenchymal tumours
- Rare in the remainder of the gastrointestinal tract
- Gastrointestinal leiomyosarcoma: rare
- Gastrointestinal lymphoma / gastric lymphoma
- Gastrointestinal schwannoma
- Gastrointestinal carcinoid[1]
