Cavernous hemangioma of mesentery involving the jejunum causing intestinal obstruction in an adult male

Abstract

Abstract We present a rare case of a 45‐year‐old man with abdominal pain and features suggestive of intestinal obstruction. The CT scan of the abdomen demonstrated a large mesenteric mass involving the distal segment of jejunum. Surgical excision of the lesion and histopathological examination revealed the diagnosis of cavernous hemangioma.
