Background: Colon lipomas are rare benign lesions taking place mostly in the right colon with a female predomination. They are mainly submucosal and symptomatic when becoming more than 2 cm in size.
Case Report: This is the case of a 43 years old female patient presenting with bowel obstruction associated with colocolic intussusception due to a giant colonic lipoma. A segmental partial colectomy has been performed followed by a favorable postoperative course.
Conclusion: Giant colon lipomas presenting with intussusception is a rare finding. Surgery is the major treatment but, unfortunately, there is no clear consensus on the recommended procedure in the literature.
