title: [Intra-abdominal pseudotumorous panniculitis. CAT scan aspects of a case localized in the greater omentum].
abstract: Intra-abdominal panniculitis is an inflammatory and necrotic reaction to local, general or undetermined aggressions to intra- or retro-peritoneal fatty tissue. A case localized to the greater omentum is described and findings on CT scan imaging reported: encapsulated, heterogeneous mass of fatty density with fibrous bands and with fascial thickenings. Diagnosis is based mainly on histopathology, the CT scan being incapable, despite the clinical context, of formally rejecting a diagnosis of liposarcoma.
