## Contribution

This case highlights the rare occurrence of colonic lipoma as a lead point for intussusception in adults.

- Surgical intervention was necessary to resolve the condition and confirm the diagnosis.
- Histological analysis confirmed the presence of a lipoma.

## Abstract

We present a case of a 38-year-old female with a large colonic lipoma leading to colocolic intussusception. The patient presented with severe intermittent abdominal pain and was diagnosed through ultrasound and CT imaging. Surgical intervention was required to resolve the intussusception and remove the lipoma. Histological examination confirmed the diagnosis of lipoma. Although it is rare for intussusception to occur in adults, this case demonstrates how it may present.
