  • Title: [X-ray computed tomography of duodenal lipoma].
    Author: Maradji-Melia P, Bruneton JN, Balu-Maestro C, Dubruque F, Marcy PY, Rogopoulos A, Mourou MY.
    Journal: J Radiol; 1992; 73(6-7):395-8. PubMed ID: 1474513.
    Abstract:
    Duodenal lipoma is a rare, often asymptomatic tumor; the circumstances of its discovery have become more frequent as CT examinations are more commonly performed. The merits of a CT examination for this condition is to allow both a positive diagnosis and the follow-up of these fatty tumors which have very few clinical expressions, thus avoiding complementary examinations or even useless laparotomies. The authors describe three cases of incidental discovery of duodenal lipomas.
