Visceral lipoma originating from the mesentery is very rare in childhood. A 29-month-old male presented with painless abdominal distension. Abdominal ultrasonography and CT revealed a huge multilobulated hypodense mass in the peritoneal cavity. Exploratory lapa­

rotomy showed a 26X25X5 cm sized encapsulated, lobulated, homogenous mass, which origi­nated from the transverse mesocolon. Histologic examination revealed a lipoma. The posto­perative course was uneventful. (J Kor Assoc Pediatr Surg 100):47-51), 2004.
