Core Tip

Core Tip: Calcifying fibrous tumors (CFTs) are rare and benign mesenchymal neoplasms with a low risk of recurrence and are cured by local removal. The treatment of CFTs primarily aims to relieve symptoms, such as intussusception and obstruction. Gastrointestinal calcifying fibrous tumors can be removed using endoscopic procedures.
