CASE REPORT: A 44-year-old female with small intestinal mass, preoperatively diagnosed radiologically and pathologically as GIST. CONCLUSION: Mesenteric fibromatosis is a rare tumor often mistaken for GIST. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry is the key as management of both the tumors differs.
