Abstract
The authors describe a large gastric leiomyoma with prevailing subserous growth. Conventional X-ray examination and endoscopy failed to diagnose the lesion properly. On the contrary, with CT it was possible to hypothesize the existence of leiomyoma with the correct definition of the outline of the lesion.
