This case reveals ascending colonic intussusception due to ileal angiolipoma, highlighting surgical intervention needs.
Abstract Introduction: Angiolipoma, a rare benign intestinal tumor, is primarily diagnosed through abdominal imaging and pathological examination. Intestinal angiolipomas frequently cause intussusception, necessitating prompt surgical resection. Case Presentation: This paper reports a 62-year-old female patient admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University with "unprovoked paroxysmal abdominal pain for 3 months." Preoperative diagnosis indicated ascending colonic intussusception secondary to ileal angiolipoma. Pathological examination following surgical bowel resection confirmed the lesion as an (ileal) angiolipoma. Conclusions: Given the rarity of this pathological entity in the intestinal tract, we present this case.
