چکیده

The duodenum is a rare site for gastrointestinal lipoma with less than 230 cases reported in the literature.

The authors present a case of GOO in a 40-year-old male, secondary to a duodenal lipoma. It was successfully treated by a transduodenal resection through a midline laparotomy. The histology report confirmed it was a submucosal lipoma.
