INTRODUCTION: Small bowel volvulus due to mesenteric lipoma is a rare clinical entity. It poses both a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Small bowel mesenteric lipoma is a rare cause of small bowel obstruction. We present the case of a patient admitted to our emergency department for a small bowel volvulus due to a mesenteric lipoma with small intestine obstruction.
PATIENT AND METHOD: A 61 years old man, with diabetes since 25 years with antidiabetics oral medication, vaccinated against Covid 19 (two doses) who presented with peri-umbilical pain for two months, constipation and melaena, complicated 3 days before his admission by obstructive symptoms and vomiting with apyrexia and overall health state alteration. The physical examination noticed abdomen distension and the abdominal CT scan revealed a large fatty mass of the hypochondrium and left flank, roughly oval with regular borders, well limited measuring 124 × 86 mm of height of 126 mm thought to be a liposarcoma. The patient underwent enbloc resection of 20 cm of small bowel with the mass and end to end anastomosis of the ileo-ileum. The postoperative course was uneventful and he was been discharged from hospital on day 5.
DISCUSSION: Mesenteric lipomas are diagnosed incidentally after laparoscopy or laparatomy. Ultrasound shows a well defined homogenous echogenic mass, and so can distinguish it from a mesenteric cyst. Computed Tomography (CT) is the standard imaging of diagnosis and shows homogenous tumor of adipose tissue. The treatment is surgery and the prognosis is better.
CONCLUSION: The mesenteric is an uncommon location of lipoma. When there is small bowel obstruction with intra-abdominal mass, the mesenteric lipoma could be recalled.
