Abstract
A 64-year-old female, with a history of malignant pleural mesothelioma but no past abdominal operations, presented with small bowel obstruction. She failed non-operative treatment and underwent laparoscopic exploration, which revealed an obstructing mid small bowel tumour. The patient underwent limited small bowel resection, but multiple, non obstructing skip lesions were noted along the mesenteric border. She had uneventful recovery, and was discharged home. Final pathology of the small bowel revealed a malignant mesothelioma of epitheloid subtype.
