Mesenteric fibromatosis, a rare condition, caused rectal stenosis in a patient. Surgical resection and a Hartman operation were necessary to manage this rare abdominal tumor.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Abdominal Surgery

Background:

  • Mesenteric fibromatosis is a rare, benign neoplastic proliferation of fibroblasts.
  • It can occur sporadically or in association with familial adenomatous polyposis.
  • This condition can present with various abdominal symptoms depending on its location and size.

Observation:

  • A patient presented with symptoms of rectal stenosis.
  • Imaging and biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of mesenteric fibromatosis.
  • The fibromatosis caused significant narrowing of the rectal lumen.

Findings:

  • The mesenteric fibromatosis led to severe rectal stenosis.
  • Surgical intervention, including resection and a Hartman operation, was performed.

  • Histopathological review confirmed the diagnosis and characterized the tumor features.

    • Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of considering rare diagnoses like mesenteric fibromatosis in patients with unexplained rectal stenosis.
    • Surgical management is often required for symptomatic fibromatosis.
    • Further review of this disease's features is warranted for improved clinical recognition and treatment strategies.
