Mesenteric lipoma leading to small gut strangulation and short gut syndrome.
J Coll Physicians Surg Pak Jan ;15(6):371-2.

A rare case of mesenteric lipoma was presented to us as acute abdomen. His abdominal x-ray showed dilated small gut. Ultrasonography of abdomen revealed dilated small gut loops and minimal amount of free fluid in the peritoneal cavity. On exploration, most of the small gut was gangrenous and tightly twisted twice around its mesentery that contained a lump which was confirmed as lipoma on histopathology.
