	abstract = {Intussusception in adults is rare, accounting for only 5\% of all cases of intussusceptions and only 1\% of bowel obstruction. Preoperative diagnosis is often difficult due to non specific symptoms and subacute nature. This case report was a per-operatively diagnosed adult colo-colic intussusception induced by a lipoma which mimicked a sigmoid polyp on colonoscopy. A 40-year-old Bengali woman was admitted with two weeks history of colicky lower abdominal pain. Ultrasound abdomen was unremarkable. Colonoscopy revealed a moderately enlarged sigmoid polyp at 25 cm from the anal verge. A midline incision laparotomy was performed only to reveal a colo-colic intussusception. The intussusception was reduced and the patient underwent a segmental resection of the involved bowel. Histological evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of lipoma of the colon. The patient however satisfactory recovery and remains well six months after surgery.},
