Intussusception caused by a lymphomatous mass is extremely rare in adults. To date, only four cases of mantle cell lymphoma have intussusception as a treatment sequelae or complication. A 72-year-old previously healthy male presented to the emergency department with an ileocolic intussusception related small bowel obstruction. Laparoscopic examination showed two solid masses with the terminal ileum as the lead point, and a whitish mass was incidentally found at the gallbladder fundus. Laparoscopic right hemicolectomy and cholecystectomy was performed and the pathological report declared mantle cell lymphoma of ileum and gallbladder. This is the first reported case of incidental mantle cell lymphoma initially presented as intussusception with a skip lesion at the gallbladder.
