ABSTRACT
Schwannomas (also known as neurinomas or neurilemmomas) are generally benign, slow-growing tumours arising from the sheath of peripheral nerves. They occur very rarely within the mesentery of the small intestine. This study presents the case of a 38‑year‑old woman who was admitted to hospital following an epileptic seizure and was found to have elevated liver enzymes. An incidental tumour of the small‑intestinal mesentery was identified and, after surgical excision, was histopathologically confirmed to be a benign sch wannoma.
