[An uncommon case of purulent mesenteric lymphadenitis]
Abstract:
The authors present a case of a middle-aged female with large isolated mesenteric lymphadenitis. Abdominal ultrasonography undertaken as a preventive assessment revealed a solid tumour mass in the left mesogastrium, sized 70x55x55 mm. A solid abdominal tumour such as a GIST or sarcoma was considered and the patient underwent elective laparoscopic surgery. The tumour was completely removed. Histopathological examination confirmed an unexpected result of nonspecific purulent mesenteric lymphadenitis. The authors discuss potential causes of mesenteric lymphadenitis.Key words: abdominal tumour mesenteric lymphadenopathy purulent lymphadenitis - solitary lymphadenopathy.
