The authors present 6 cases of colonic lipoma, 2 in females and 1 in male, aged between 61-62 years. The benign lipomatous tumour was in all cases unique, located in the right segment of the colon, ileocecal valve, and on the sigmoid once respectively. The right colonic lipomas had clinical signs of intestinal invagination while the sigmoidian one were characterized by abdominal pain and bleeding. The surgical solution consisted in limited ileocecal resection, right hemicolectomy, and segmentary colectomy respectively.
