  • Title: Lipoma-induced jejunojejunal intussusception: US and CT diagnosis.
    Author: Urbano J, Serantes A, Hernandez L, Turegano F.
    Journal: Abdom Imaging; 1996; 21(6):522-4. PubMed ID: 8875876.
    Abstract:
    A case study of a patient who presented with abdominal pain and a palpable mesogastric mass is discussed. Ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) demonstrated that the palpable mass was jejunojejunal intussusception of the small intestine. The lead point of the intussusception was a lipoma that appeared in the CT scan as a small intramural mass with an attenuation coefficient of fat.
