One hundred and seventy one patients with mesentery tumors confirmed by surgery and/or pathology in five hospitals of Hubei Province from 1966 to 1986 are analyzed retrospectively. The main manifestations were abdominal pain, abdominal mass and emaciation. Cyst and leiomyomas were common in benign tumors. Malignant lymphoma, leiomyosarcoma and liposarcoma were predominant in malignant tumors. The morbidity, clinico-pathologic characteristics, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of this group of tumor are discussed.

This paper describes a leiomyosarcoma found in the distal part of the jejunum of a 7 year old, East Friesian dairy sheep. The animal showed a progressive emaciation during 3 months, leucocytosis, neutrophilia, relative lymphocytopenia and increased levels of serum urea. On histology, the tumor was characterized by anaplasia, cellular and nuclear polymorphism and also by regressive processes and local invasion. Characteristic features such as numerous mitotic figures and giant cells were also observed.
