Core Tip

Core Tip: Small intestinal collision tumors, specifically those comprising hamartomatous tumors with lipomas, are rare. Most available literature on gastrointestinal collision tumors describes cases with malignant tumor components, and most of these patients are treated surgically. In this report, we present a rare case in which a collision tumor composed of two benign tumors of different origins in the small intestine was accidentally discovered because of hemorrhage-induced hypovolemic shock. Considering the patient’s advanced age, multiple comorbidities, and poor surgical tolerance, we performed a modified endoscopic submucosal dissection procedure. This case demonstrates an approach for managing benign collision tumors in the small intestine.
