Sumario:Lipoma of the duodenum is a rare tumor, with fewer than 230 cases reported to date. A majority of these tumors were managed by endoscopic and open surgical intervention, with published data on one case that was managed by total laparoscopy. We report a case of a 43-year-old woman with signs and symptoms of gastric outlet obstruction who was diagnosed as having a large duodenal lipoma that was managed successfully with laparoscopic excision.
