description This case reports on a patient presenting with abdominal pain of 1-month duration; in whom, ultrasound (US) detected a colonic lipoma with intussusception. Further investigation with computed tomography confirmed this finding, and successful endoscopic removal of the lipoma was performed. This case highlights the importance of careful evaluation of the region of interest during US, knowing the appearance of lipoma on US and other modalities, thus aiding its adequate management.
