RESUMEN
Introduction: Gastrointestinal tract is a uncommon site forlipomas. Intestinal lipomas are most common benign nonepithelial intestinal tumors, found incidentally. Symptomaticdiffuse submucosal intestinal lipomatosis is a rare entity. Here,we present a rare case of intestinal submucosal lipomatosis,which presented as intestinal obstruction.Case report: On laparotomy, intussusception of a segment ofgut was identified and sent for histopathological examination.On gross examination, intussusception of a part of gutsegment with distally gangrenous gut segment was identified.On cutting open, multiple soft, yellowish polypoidal growthsidentified. On histopathology, multiple submucosal lipomaswere identified.Conclusion: Diffuse intestinal lipomatosis is a rare conditionand can lead to intestinal obstruction and should be kept as adifferential diagnosis in a case of intussusceptions.
