title: [Hemangiopericytoma of the rectal mesentery].
abstract: The authors present a case of hemangiopericytoma of the rectal mesentery, this is an uncommon type of vascular tumor, exceptional in this localization. We analyze the difficulty of a preoperative diagnosis, the lack of specificity of the clinical signs and the importance of the radical resection linked to the biological aggressiveness and the frequency of local recurrences and distant metastases.
