| Core Tip |
Gastrointestinal neurofibromas are rarely found in isolation in the absence of systemic neurofibromatosis. We present herein, the first case of an isolated colonic neurofibroma in a patient with Lynch syndrome. There are currently no guidelines for the management of isolated gastrointestinal neurofibromas due to the lack of studies. We recommend considering establishing a diagnosis with endoscopic mucosal biopsy or ultrasound guided biopsy, reserving resection for patients with symptomatic disease or alternative indications, and continuing to follow patients for the surveillance of neurofibromatosis type 1 to reduce associated morbidity and mortality. |
