[Mesenteric fibromatosis. Anatomo-clinical studies of a case]

Mesenteric fibromatosis is a rare lesion associated with an insidious onset and with a movable mass representing frequently the only expression of disorder clinically. This mesenchymal lesion is a well differentiated fibrous growth perhaps catalogued as a pseudotumor. The authors describe one case treated surgically. The general series is reviewed and clinical and pathological comments are made about the diagnostic and etiological aspects of the disease.
