Hi. Thanks for your query. Mesenteric panniculitis is a rare condition. In this condition there is a fibrosis affects the fatty tissue of the mesentery, that is the membrane by which the small intestine and colon are suspended in the abdomen and gives passage for blood and lymphatic vessels. The specific cause of the disease is not known. The diagnosis is suggested by CT Scan and is usually confirmed by surgical biopsies. Treatment is empirical and based on a few selected drugs which are prescription medicines , hence you have to contact a General Surgeon or Surgical Gastroenterologist.
