MEDINA GARRIDO, Yosvany; HERNANDEZ CUBAS, Mario Orlando; PINO TORRENS, Carlos Miguel e SORIAS FACHENDA, Milagros. Cecum lipoma. Rev Cub Med Mil [online]. 2007, vol.36, n.1. ISSN 0138-6557.
Colon lipomas are in the third place of the frequency of appearance of benign tumours. These tumours are composed of well-differentiated fatty tissue with a fibrous stroma. Most of these lipomas are asymptomatic, and some of them rarely present emergency complications. The aim of this paper is to present a case of enterorrhagia and abdominal pain caused by a lipoma at the cecum level.
