Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: Benign mesenteric lipodystrophy is rare and often presents in a non-specific fashion. Imaging findings may mimic a range of malignant conditions, particularly malignant ovarian disease in women.
CASE PRESENTATION: We present the case of a 61-year-old Caucasian woman who was referred to the gynaecology service at our institution and was thought to have ovarian malignancy, and required a laparotomy. However, histopathological analysis unexpectedly revealed benign mesenteric lipodystrophy.
CONCLUSION: Benign mesenteric lipodystrophy may mimic a range of conditions, particularly malignancy.
