Résumé

L’invagination colique sur lipome est rare.

Nous rapportons le cas d’une invagination iléo-colique sur lipome du côlon droit survenue chez une femme de 42 ans. La présentation clinique et échographique initiale avait orienté le diagnostic vers une pathologie urinaire. L’apparition d’un syndrome occlusif et la mise en évidence à la tomodensitométrie (TDM) d’une invagination iléocolique a permis de réaliser une hémicolectomie droite. L’examen anatomopathologique de la pièce opératoire a confirmé le diagnostic de lipome.

Conclusion

Le lipome colique est rare. Sa symptomatologie est peu spécifique. La tomodensitométrie abdominale aide au diagnostic en mettant en évidence l’invagination et parfois la tumeur. L’exérèse chirurgicale suivie de l’examen anatomopathologique de la pièce opératoire permet de poser le diagnostic de lipome.

Abstract

The colic intussusception on lipoma is rare.

Herein, we report the case of ileocolic intussusception in the right colic lipoma occurred in a 42-years-old woman. The clinical and ultrasonographic aspects directed towards an urinary pathology. The occurrence of an occlusive syndrome and ileocolic intussusception detected by computerized tomographic (CT) scan are consistent with a right hemicolectomy. Furthermore, pathological investigation confirmed the diagnosis of lipoma.

Conclusion

Colonic lipoma is rare and its symptoms are not specific. Abdominal CT scan helps for the diagnosis by giving evidence for an intussusception and sometimes for a tumor. Surgical excision followed by pathological examination of the surgical specimen enables the diagnosis of lipoma.
