Abstract
A woman in her mid-50s presented with a 3-month history of upper abdominal pain. Initial examination using ultrasound was unremarkable and the patient was sent home. The patient returned 8 days later and CT imaging revealed intussusception as the cause of her symptoms. The involved bowel was surgically reduced and transected with the lead point found to contain a 3 cm mass. Histological examination revealed the mass to be an angiolipoma. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of adult jejunojejunal intussusception secondary to angiolipoma. 2015 BMJ Publishing Group Ltd.Entities:
