Abstract
Abstract Vascular malformations involving the gastrointestinal tract are uncommon and have a variety of clinical presentations. In this paper, we present a case of a jejunal vascular malformation presenting as a small bowel obstruction in a 2-year-old boy. After clinical and radiologic evaluation, the patient underwent an exploratory laparotomy during which a jejunal mass was identified as the cause of the obstruction and was removed. Pathologic diagnosis confirmed the mass as a benign cavernous hemangioma within the jejunum. The patient recovered well post-operatively.
