This study reports six cases of colonic lipoma, a benign tumor, in older adults. Symptoms varied by location, necessitating surgical intervention for intestinal invagination, pain, and bleeding.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Colonic lipomas are rare, benign tumors of mesenchymal origin.
  • They can present with varied clinical symptoms depending on size and location.
  • Diagnosis and management require careful consideration of patient presentation.

Observation:

  • Six cases of colonic lipoma were analyzed, with a slight female predominance (2 females, 1 male) in the 61-62 year age group.
  • Lipomas were unique and located in the right colon, ileocecal valve, and sigmoid colon.
  • Clinical manifestations included intestinal invagination for right-sided lipomas and abdominal pain/bleeding for the sigmoid lipoma.

Findings:

  • Benign lipomatous tumors of the colon can cause significant gastrointestinal symptoms.

  • Location dictates the clinical presentation, with right-sided lesions potentially leading to invagination and sigmoid lesions to pain and bleeding.
  • Surgical resection is the definitive treatment, with procedures tailored to the lipoma's location and associated complications.

    • Implications:

    • Understanding the varied presentations of colonic lipomas is crucial for accurate diagnosis.
    • Surgical strategies should be individualized based on lipoma location and clinical signs.
    • Further research into the etiology and optimal management of colonic lipomas is warranted.
