Summary: | Gastric schwannoma is a very rare gastrointestinal benign tumor, which represents only 0.2% of all gastric tumors and 4% of all benign gastric tumors. We report a case of gastric schwannoma with enlargement of size through serial endoscopic examination. Endoscopic examination showed a hard mass of 4 x 3 cm in size with normal overlying gastric mucosa on the great curvature of the mid-body of stomach. The pathological finding revealed a picture of spindle cell tumor. Immunohistochemical stain was strongly positive for S-100 protein and non-reactive for CD34, C-kit and smooth muscle actin, thus leading to the diagnosis of gastric schwannoma.
