Abstract
A case of a solitary small bowel Peutz-Jegher's hamartoma in which ang iography revealed the lesion to be vascular is presented. The findings suggest that not all Peutz-Jegher's hamartomas are hypovascular as pr eviously reported and that this type of polyp may mimic other vascular lesions such as haemangiomas and leiomyomas.
