[Intussusception in disseminated peritoneal leiomyomatosis]

Abstract

A 28-year-old woman presented with intussusception. At laparotomy the peritoneal cavity was found to contain many nodules of various sizes, fitting the diagnosis of 'leiomyomatosis peritonealis disseminata'. A leiomyomatous tumour that caused the intussusception was also found.
