Abstrakt: Intestinal lipomatosis is an extremely rare disease that is characterized by numerous lipomas of the intestine. This condition is usually asymptomatic, but clinical presentation is determined by intussusceptions, volvulus, or ulceration. We report a case of intestinal lipomatosis of the jejunum with volvulus and describe the characteristic computed tomography findings that were used to make a preoperative diagnosis.
