%X La paniculitis mesent谷rica es una enfermedad inflamatoria del tejido adiposo del mesenterio, de presentaci車n infrecuente y que se caracteriza, por el engrasamiento, endurecimiento y nodularidad del mismo. Se pone en consideraci車n un caso cl赤nico en un var車n joven, con una forma de presentaci車n poco com迆n que requiri車 de laparotom赤a exploradora para realizar el diagn車stico y tratamiento. We report a 28 years o赤d obese male presenting with abdominal pain of increasing intensity lasting 15 days. In the last days, diarrhea and fever appeared. On abdominal examination a 8 cm painful mass was palpated. An abdominal ultrasound showed an anechoic mass in the epigastrium. An abdominal CAT sean showed an inflammatory mass that involves the small bowel. The patient is subjected to a percutaneous needle aspiration, obtaining 50 mi of a purulent fluid. Due to persistence of fever, the patient was operated finding an inflammation that involved the mesentery and the great omentum and covering abscess. The pathologic study of the surgical piece reported a unspecific nodular mesenteric panniculitis.
