It arises in any quadrant that contains omentum when a compromised blood supply takes place. We report a morbid obese 45-year-old male with Diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia and coronavirus-disease-related pneumonia 2 months prior to his emergency presentation with acute epigastric and right upper quadrant pain. The patient was investigated by computed tomography (CT), and the provisional diagnosis was biliary colic from gallbladder stone. The patient\u2019s pain was severe and not compatible with biliary colic. Diagnostic laparoscopy approached and an incidental finding of omental necrotic area. Excision of the infarcted omentum in addition to cholecystectomy was done. The patient\u2019s postoperative course was uneventful, and he was discharged home after 2 days. In our case, the CT image did not discover mental changes that may help us to make a preoperative diagnosis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjab521","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,5]],"date-time":"2021-11-05T12:13:49Z","timestamp":1636114429000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Omental infarction present with right upper quadrant pain, case report"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2021","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9568-334X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Khulud","family":"Aolayan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, King Fahad Hospital, Medina, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ghassan","family":"Obaid","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Dr. Samir Abbas Hospital, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Khaled","family":"Fadel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Dr. Samir Abbas Hospital, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8444-7229","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Abdulrahman M","family":"Alotaibi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, University of Jeddah, Dr. Soliman Fakeeh Hospital, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021120110530008900_ref1","first-page":"293","article-title":"Idiopathic omental infarction - a case report and review of the literature","volume-title":"J.
