Abstract
Colonic lipoma is a rare benign tumor infrequently met in clinical practice. We report a case of symptomatic lipoma of the ascending colon in a 61-year-old woman. Diagnosis was suspected on CT scan. Colotomy with lipectomy was performed. The diagnosis was confirmed by histological examination. Reviewing the literature and combining with our experience, we discuss the clinical features, diagnosis and treatment of this uncommon disease.Entities:
