Core Tip	Given the increasing incidence of Crohn’s disease (CD) and its decreasing age of onset, upper gastrointestinal involvement is expected to become more frequent. Although gastric CD typically presents as gastritis, erosions, atypical ulcers, a cobblestone appearance of the mucosa, or strictures, it can (albeit rarely) manifest as a subepithelial tumor, as demonstrated in this case. Therefore, when a gastric subepithelial lesion is detected—particularly in young patients with CD—endoscopic ultrasonography and histological assessment are essential to distinguish upper gastrointestinal involvement of CD from other etiologies.
