[Small myomas of stomach in autopsy cases (author's transl)].
In a series of 800 unselected autopsy cases in 46 patients gastric myomas were founded. These tumors are the most common non-epithelial neoplasms of gastric wall. The average age runs to 77 years. Myomas are mainly localized in the fundus and corpus of the stomach. They originate from the internal layer of the muscularis propria. These myomas grow very slowly, and calcification or sclerosis are frequent. The practical clinical importance is insignificant.
