STRESZCZENIE
Mesenteric panniculitis (MP) is a relatively rare pathology characterized by idiopathic local chronic inflammation of adipose tissue, mainly affecting the mesentery of the small intestine. The purpose of the study is to describe a case of MP. A 60-year-old patient visited a rheumatologist due to the progressive deterioration of his condition for the last 4 months and revealed changes on the computed tomography of the abdominal cavity. Treatment protocol: methylprednisolone 8 mg/day, pantoprazole 40 mg/day; continue with antihypertensive drugs. On the background of treatment after 2 months, the temperature became normal, appetite improved, and weakness decreased, with no relapses of abdominal symptoms. Diagnosis of MP is a difficult task, which has to be solved by primary care specialists. This clinical case is an example of MP diagnosis and positive dynamics of the patient’s clinical condition during therapy.
