Lymphangiolipoma of the mesentery.
An exceedingly rare tumor was found coincidentally in a young woman who had salpingectomy. The benign tumor was complex in nature and consisted of a lymphangioma and a well-encapsulated lipoma located in the mesentery of the small intestine. This tumor is compared with the similar ones mentioned so far in the literature.
