A 28-year-old patient reported a lump in the right lower abdominal and pelvic area forthe last 21 days along with pain, anorexia, fever, and nausea. After a thorough inves-tigation, an AP scanogram of the patient showed a clearly defined lump in this area.Histopathological examination showed mesenteric fibromatosis. Resection and anas-tomosis were done.Our case is one of the few known cases of the extremely rare condition fibromatosisof the mesentery. These tumors present a diagnostic and therapeutic difficulty due totheir rarity. These tumors are still asymptomatic; however, they frequently appear as anasymptomatic mass. There aren’t any obvious therapy options. The preferred methodof treatment is surgical excision with a wide margin; we underwent the same tech-nique, and the prognosis was good. Numerous single case reports with various andpeculiar appearances and their difficulties exist. This case report aims to offer a currentunderstanding of mesenteric fibromatosis as well as our clinical experience with thepresented patient. Following surgery, the patient did well, and a three-month follow-uprevealed a typical recovery.
