CT and MR findings of torsion of greater omentum: a case report.

T Maeda¹, H Mori, M Cyujo, N Kikuchi, Y Hori, H Takaki.

Abstract

We report a case of torsion of the greater omentum, which occurred in a 39-year-old man with an adhesive inguinal hernia. Preoperative computed tomography and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging showed a characteristic whirling fatty mass occupying the middle and lower abdomen anteriorly. MR imaging also showed difference of intensities in the twisted omentum, suggesting the presence of the pathological conditions of edema or congestion.
