Computed tomographic distinction of submucosal lipoma and adenomatous polyp of the colon
Abstract:
Described here is a patient with 2 large pedunculated colonic tumors detected by barium enema radiography. By computed tomography (CT) 1 was found to be a submucosal lipoma characterized by oval shape, smooth demarcation, and homogeneous density with a CT number of -68 HU, whereas the other was an adenomatous polyp with slightly fuzzy outline and a much higher CT number. This case indicates that CT can be a definitive diagnostic modality for distinguishing between a colonic lipoma and other solid or cystic tumor of the colon.
