A member asked:
What does my ct scan result mean? secondary to mesenteric panniculitis.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Inflamed fat: Mesenteric panniculitis is a non-specific inflammation of the "belly fat". While there are various types and causes, and many cases are self-limited, you should probably see a specialist to help guide further work-up or follow-up.
