Xanthomas within the gastrointestinal tract occur secondary to a mucosal insult. When enough cells accumulate, their appearance can range from small nodules studding the intestinal mucosa to bandlike infiltrations to pseudotumor-like masses within the intestine with fibrosis and inflammation resembling malignancy. When large enough, they can produce symptoms of obstruction such as vomiting, abdominal pain, distention, and dysmotility. This case demonstrates the epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of duodenal xanthomas.
