{Abstract}: Gastric schwannomas are rare types of gastrointestinal mesenchymal tumours that are slow-growing and mostly benign. They are usually asymptomatic. In some cases, nonspecific gastric symptoms, palpable mass, and bleeding can be seen. A definitive diagnosis requires pathological and immunohistochemical examination, and surgical resection offers an excellent prognosis with uncommon recurrence. We present a case of a 62-year-old woman who underwent exploratory laparotomy and wedge resection with preoperative diagnosis as gastrointestinal stromal tumor and postoperatively diagnosed as schwannoma on histopathology.
