Ganglioneuroma (GN) is a rare, slow-growing, benign, neurogenic tumor that often originates from sympathetic ganglion cells and rarely from the adrenal medulla, sympathetic nerves, and peripheral nerves. Mediastinum and retroperitoneum are the most common locations, but they may occur in any part of the gastrointestinal system. This patient, who presented to our clinic with abdominal pain, had two hypodense lesions in the liver and pulmonary nodules in the lung, which caused invagination at the terminal ileum-ileocecal valve level. She underwent right colectomy, and the histopathological diagnosis was GN.
