Lipomatosis of the terminal ileum and ileocaecal valve: multidetector CT findings.

Abstract

Intestinal lipomatosis, also known as lipohyperplasia, is a rare disease. Diffuse infiltration of fatty tissue mainly in the submucosal layer is characteristic. It is usually asymptomatic and found incidentally. We report a case of lipomatosis in the terminal ileum and ileocaecal valve. Multidetector CT with contrast enhancement showed fatty infiltration of the terminal ileum and ileocaecal valve.
