title: Giant epithelioid leiomyoblastoma of the stomach--a diagnostic dilemma.
abstract: Epithelioid leiomyoblastoma (ELB) of the stomach is an uncommon slow growing smooth muscle tumour, attaining enormous size and presenting with bizzare symptoms. We report one such case which posed a diagnostic problem to both the clinician and the radiologist; the condition was diagnosed after laparotomy and histological examination.
