Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Lipomas of the colon are uncommon benign tumors.
  • They can present with varied symptoms, including intestinal obstruction.

Observation:

  • Two elderly female patients presented with colonic lipoma.
  • One patient experienced diarrhea, while the other had sub-acute intestinal obstruction.

Findings:

  • Both cases were diagnosed via colonoscopy.
  • Surgical removal was performed, and histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of lipoma.

Implications:

  • Early diagnosis and surgical intervention are crucial for managing colonic lipomas.
  • Understanding the clinical presentation aids in timely patient management.
