Torsion of lipoma of appendix epiploica: CT evaluation. 1985

E J Farmlett, and E K Fishman, and B Jones, and S S Siegelman

We present a case of a large abdominal mass of fat density on CT, which proved at surgery to be a lipoma arising in an appendix epiploica. The clinical, pathological, and radiological aspects of appendices epiploicae are discussed.
