Abstract

Because of their small size, small bowel malignancies are often easily missed when radiologists read CT images, which can lead to errors in the normal small bowel due to their similar enhancement to the small bowel or non-specific enhancement. In addition, small bowel malignancies are sometimes mistaken for masses of other origins, such as the uterus, rectum, or omentum. In this article, we describe various small-bowel malignancies, their mimicking lesions and the typical and atypical features on CT imaging along with their clinical manifestations.
