We report our experience of a case of lipoma of the transverse colon with intussusception that was successfully treated by laparoscopic surgery. The case was an 81-year-old woman who consulted a local clinic with a chief complaint of abdominal pain. The patient was referred to our department because abdominal CT scan revealed intussusception of the transverse colon. A fist-sized abdominal mass was found along with corresponding tenderness in her left upper abdominal area to the periumbilical area. The patient was diagnosed with intussusception caused by transverse colon tumor and was planned to undergo surgery. Intussusception associated with tumor was observed in the middle of the transverse colon. However, since the mobility in the abdominal cavity was favorable, partial resection of the transverse colon was performed through small laparotomy. The resection specimen showed a semi pedunculated submucosal tumor 9 × 6 cm in size. Histopathologically, the patient was diagnosed with adipose tumor outgrown with mature adipocytes in varied sizes.}, pages = {362--366}, title = {A Case of Giant Lipoma of the Transverse Colon with Intussusception Treated Successfully by Laparoscopic Surgery}, volume = {1}, year = {2022} }
