Abstract
It is well known that leiomyomas of both benign and malignant form may arise from the smooth muscle of any of those parts of the alimentary tube which are provided with muscular coats. They are smoothly circumscribed tumors, sometimes nodular, which form masses in the wall of the tube and are rather prone to ulceration accompanied by severe hemorrhages, although they are not usually vascular. They are not painful.Keywords
