Ileocecal invagination due to an inflammatory fibroid polyp. A case report

The invagination develops as a result of the dislocation of proximal bowel segment within the following distal portion. It is rarely seen in adult population. It generally develops as a result of intestinal wall neoplasia in the adult patients. Only 3-6% of gastrointestinal system tumors are seen to be localized to small bowels. Inflammatory fibroid polyp is a rarely seen benign tumor in gastrointestinal system. We present the case of 47 year-old female with ileo-cecal invagination caused by Inflammatory fibroid polyp in ileum.
