Abstract

A case report of sclerosing mesocolitis is presented. This is an unusual and poorly understood entity. A 49-year-old woman presented with episodic abdominal pain and a palpable abdominal mass. A fibrotic mass causing extensive compression of her cecum and transverse colon was found at laparotomy. The pathologic findings and treatment of sclerosing mesocolitis are discussed.
