Lipoma is the most frequent benign mesenchymal tumor that resembles normal white fat. Gastrointestinal tract lipomas are rare. The small bowel is the second predilection site of lipomas following the colon. Mesenteric lipomas mainly occur in adults without gender predilection. They are usually asymptomatic and discovered incidentally. However; these tumors may present with intussusception and intestinal bleeding. CT is the key imaging modality to diagnose mesenteric lipoma. They typically present as well-circumscribed, non-enhancing masses with homogeneous fatty attenuation, which are often contained and separate from free mesenteric fat (Figure 1 and 2: white arrows). On MRI, mesenteric lipomas demonstrate homogeneous signal intensity identical to that of fat. Thin fibrous septa of low signal intensity on T1- and T2-weighted images may be present.
