Inflammatory fibroid polyps (IFPs) are rare mesenchymal neoplasms affecting the gastrointestinal tract which are considered benign and noninvasive. We present a case of an invasive IFP in a 46-year-old woman who presented with signs of intestinal obstruction due to ileal intussusception. A segment of the small intestine was resected and subsequently intestinal continuity was restored. A polypoid lesion was found obstructing the lumen. Histopathology revealed a mesenchymal proliferation of spindle and stellate cells, without cytological atypia, arranged in a fibromyxoid stroma. The tumor cells were located in the submucosa but also infiltrated the muscularis propria and the subserosa and were CD34 positive. The molecular study by PCR showed mutation in exon 12 of the PDGFRA gene. IFP is considered a true neoplasm and can also be considered as a potentially invasive lesion.
