Özet
Schwannomas, which arise from the Schwann cells of the neural plexus on the gastric wall, are slow-growing, generally
asymptomatic and frequently benign neoplasms. Gastric schwannomas account for only 0.2% of all gastric tumors. Gastrointestinal
stromal tumors (GIST) should firstly be taken into consideration in the differential diagnosis of submucosal mass lesions originating
from the gastric wall. Gastric schwannomas and GISTs are generally seen in middle-aged patients and they have similar clinical
characteristics. Surgical resection is the selected treatment method for gastric schwannomas. Definitive diagnosis is achieved
through histopathological and immunohistochemical analyses. The aim of this study was to present the case of a patient who had
presented with anemia symptoms, received laparoscopic resection because of gastric submucosal mass lesion, and diagnosed with
gastric schwannoma.
