Inflammatory Fibroid Polyps

Inflammatory fibroid polyps are uncommon benign lesions that originate in the submucosa of the gastrointestinal tract. The stomach and the ileum are the most commonly affected sites. Although inflammatory fibroid polyp is one of the rare conditions leading to intestinal obstruction in adults, it should be considered as a possible diagnosis in obstructive tumors of the small bowel causing intussusceptions. We present one case of inflammatory fibroid polyp as a rare cause of intussusception in a young adult patient.

Inflammatory Fibroid Polyps

Inflammatory fibroid polyps are uncommon; moreover, that polyp causing secondary intussusception in an adult are still rarer. Here, we report a case of inflammatory fibroid polyp of the small bowel that presented as just vague pain in the abdomen in a 48-year-old woman. Even though investigations reported Ileo-ileal intussusception caused by a polyp, the patient did not have clinical symptoms that could be correlated. The rareness of the disease made it a clinical challenge to subject the patient to laparotomy. The rareness of non-neoplastic condition being the cause for adult ileo-ileal intussusception and the clinical challenge associated with it makes it a case worth reporting.

Specific Symptoms

Adult intussusceptions which are most always caused by pathological lead points are rare and account for about 1% of all bowel obstructions and 5% of all intussusceptions. Most of them present with acute or chronic non-specific symptoms and due to which its initial diagnosis can sometimes be missed or delayed. We present the case of a 52-year-old lady who presented with intestinal obstruction caused by an ileo-ileal intussusception, caused by a peculiar tumour, inflammatory fibroid polyp (IFP).

Noxious Stimuli

Inflammatory fibroid polyps are believed to occur in response to local noxious stimuli. They are uncommon benign but well documented solitary polypoid lesions occurring in gastrointestinal tract; most commonly in stomach. A rare entities of two adult intussusceptions due to inflammatory fibroid polyp in ileum has been reported in this article.

Inflammatory fibroid polyp (Vanëk's tumor) is a very rare neoplasm remaining diagnostically challenging for clinicians and pathologists. Here we discuss clinical and morphological aspects of this process at gastrointestinal tract, based on own observations and in comparison with literature. Touch on a topic of molecular pathogenesis and evolution of views on taxonomy of these lesions. Particular part spared on differential diagnosis with clinically-morphologically mimicking entities arising throughout the gastrointestinal tract.

Submucosal Mass

Inflammatory fibroid polyp is a neoplastic condition affecting the gastrointestinal tract and particularly the gastric antrum. It is virtually a benign submucosal mass comprising mesenchymal cells and numerous small blood vessels with inflammatory cells and commonly eosinophils. Patients with inflammatory fibroid polyps usually present clinically with mechanical intestinal obstruction with or without intussusception. Herein, we present a case of a 48-year-old male with a known history of schizophrenia who presented with mechanical intestinal obstruction following intussusception due to inflammatory fibroid polyp involving the proximal jejunojejunal part of the jejunum.
