Introduction
Lipoma is a rare benign lesion of mature adipose tissue and commonly
occur in the cephalic part of the body (1,2). Its localization in the
mesentery is extremely rare (1). Few cases of mesenteric lipomas have
been reported in the literature (2).The course is usually asymptomatic
and the clinical findings depend on the size of the lipoma, its location
and the rapidity of growth of the tumor (1). We report a case of
mesenteric lipoma revealed by chronic abdominal pain along with a
litterature review regarding this rare condition.
