Intussusception is a rare clinical entity in adults, is defined as telescoping of one segment of bowel into another it accounts for 1% to 5% of cases of acute bowel obstruction. Moreso, colic intussusception remains exceptional in adults and is usually secondary to an endoluminal lesion. Abdominal intestinal lipomas are rarely responsible for colonic invagination. They are often located on the caecum or the ascending colon and rarely on the left colon. We report a rare case of a colonic lipoma causing a colorectal intussusception complicated with an acute bowel obstruction.
