Abstract
<h2>Summary</h2> A case of intussusception due to an intraluminal lipoma of the terminal ileum is reported. Benign tumors of the small intestine are rare, occurring only slightly more than half as frequently as malignant tumors of the small intestine. The preoperative diagnosis may be made by x-ray and by the symptoms of partial obstruction or intussusception in an adult, and the findings of a palpable, mobile tumor mass within the abdominal cavity. The treatment is surgical and should be done promptly if signs of intussusception or acute intestinal obstruction are present.
