The incidence of mesenteric cysts is relatively uncommon. Sprague" examined its frequency and noted that five large hospitals located in the LosnAngeles area averaged one documented case of mesenteric cyst per 100,000 hospital admissions. The most common location appears to be the mesentery of the small bowel, especially that of the ileum. Cysts of the mesentery of the large bowel are somewhat less fre- quent, accounting for approximately 38% of the total incidence. Those involving the large bowel most commonly involve the mesentery of the sigmoid colon.
