In the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, perineuriomas are uncommon and have only been reported in case reports and case series. In addition, a new classification suggests reclassifying benign fibroblastic polyps as perineurioma when they show positive markers of perineurial differentiation. <b>Objective:</b> This study aims to enhance understanding of GI tract perineuriomas by presenting a new case and conducting a systematic literature review. <b>Methods:</b> We described a new case of colonic perineurioma and systematically reviewed all case reports and case series on GI perineuriomas and benign fibroblastic polyps with perineurial markers.

Most GI perineuriomas (87.5%) were in the distal colon, predominantly in the sigmoid/rectosigmoid (56%) and rectum (14%). Outside the colon, the stomach was the most affected site (7 of 10 cases), with fewer cases in the small intestine and esophagus. The two most commonly performed stains were for epithelial membrane antigen (EMA) and glucose transporter 1 (GLUT-1), at 75% and 56% of cases, respectively. Noncolonic perineuriomas were generally larger and more symptomatic than colonic ones. Submucosal polyps were more likely symptomatic than mucosal polyps. <b>Conclusion:</b> Perineurioma in the GI tract is a rare benign polyp mainly identified in the distal colon.

An esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed an intramural tumour localised after the bulb-descending junction. Because the tumour was submucosal, the pathological diagnosis failed. Three months later, a radical surgical resection of the tumour with a resection margin of 2 mm and primary closing of the duodenum was performed. Pathological examination showed a well-circumscribed submucosal mesenchymal tumour with spindle cells. A tumour-free margin was uncertain. Immunohistochemistry findings showed a GIST.
