Özet
Backgrounds: Lipomas are most common, benign, mesenchymal
neoplasm consisting of mature adipous tissue in their stroma.
Most of the lipomas are located superficially or deeply in the
skin, although, they also can be seen in gastrointestinal tract and
are usally insidental findings in the submucosa or serosa of the
small and large intestine. The solitary lipomas of colon have been
reported to have a tendency to occur in the vicinity of ileocaecal
valve or the ascending colon. Lipomatous poliposis is a rare
“non-inherited gastrointestinal polyposis syndrome” associated
with diffuse lipomatous polips of colon. Here we reported 2 cases
of solitary colonic lipomatous polips at distal colon and a case of
duodenal lipoma in order to emphasize the confusion in the
terminology of lipoma and lipomatous polip.
