Question: what does enlarged lymph nodes in the stomach mean?
Answer: Mesenteric adenitis means inflamed (swollen) lymph glands in the abdomen, which cause abdominal pain. The name comes from 'mesentery', which is the part of the abdomen where the glands are located, and 'adenitis' meaning inflamed lymph glands. Lymph glands (also called lymph nodes) occur throughout the body.
