Lesser Omental Panniculitis.

Lesser Omental Panniculitis. Intern Med. 2020 May 26;: Authors: Nakamura M, Matsumoto Y, Hoki S, Kuroki S, Ikuta K, Senda E, Shio S Abstract A 44-year-old woman presented to our hospital with abdominal pain. Abdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography showed a mass-like change in the lesser omentum between the liver and stomach. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed a submucosal tumor-like change, and endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) revealed that the mass was located outside of the stomach wall. We performed EUS fine-needle aspiration and diagnosed panniculitis of the lesser omentum. Based on these findings, we suggest that mass-like lesions in the lesser omentum and submucosal tumor-like changes in the anterior wall on the lesser curvature side of the stomach be evaluated for the possibility of panniculitis of the lesser omentum.
