We report the case of a man aged 58, who consulted for abdominal pain of three months duration. In a period of 8 days prior to such consultation pain intensified and countless associated vomiting bile and fecaloid content. Was handled as an acute abdomen and was made an exploratory laparotomy, in which a jejunal mass with complete distal obstruction and intosuscepción evidenced. Histological examination of the lesion confirmed an inflammatory fibroid polyp (Vanek tumor) of the jejunum. In this article, the clinical and histopathologic features are discussed.
