Pyloric giant Brunner's gland hamartoma as a cause of both duodenojejunal intussusception and obscure gastrointestinal bleeding.

Obscure gastrointestinal bleeding is an important dilemma. Brunner's gland hamartoma is an extremely rare tumor generally localized in the duodenal bulb. We present a 34-year-old woman who had suffered from several episodes of melena for the past three years. Endoscopic examinations were normal. Computed tomography showed a large target lesion over the right abdomen and an image representing intestinal malrotation, which was supported by enteroclysis. At exploratory laparotomy, ligamentum of Treitz was located in the mid-to-right side of the columna vertebralis, and the duodenal bulb was found to be invaginated into the proximal jejunum. After longitudinal duodenotomy, a pedunculated ring-shaped large polyp originating from the pyloric ring was seen and excised. Histology was consistent with Brunner's gland hamartoma. This case with obscure bleeding was original with respect to its rarity and being a huge, ring-shaped tumor with pyloric localization. Moreover, the patient had a rare clinical presentation of duodenojejunal intussusception with accompanying intestinal malrotation.
