Core Tip	Persistent descending or ascending mesocolon develops as a result of failure of the primitive dorsal mesocolon to fuse with the parietal peritoneum in the fifth month of gestation. In this paper, we report a case in which both ascending and descending mesocolon coexisted. The preoperative computed tomography imaging examination indicated that the descending colon was shifted to the midline, resulting in the sigmoid colon located in the right abdominal cavity and the ascending colon located on the sigmoid colon with a mobile cecum. Prediagnosis of this embryological anomaly could enhance safety of the laparoscopic colon surgery.
