چکیده
A 38-year-old heterosexual man presented with a bulky mass lesion on his left buttock. A small polypoid lesion had been noted in the area since his childhood. It had grown slowly but steadily to a size of approximately 3 cm. In the past 2 years, however, there had been rapid growth. He denied any history of trauma or infection. His family history was insignificant. The patient was otherwise in good health. On physical examination, a huge flesh-coloured pedunculated lesion, approximately 15 × 13 cm in size, originating from the left buttock was noted (Fig. 1). It was soft in consistency and non-tender. There were no superficial changes, such as ulceration or bleeding. The shortest distance between the tumour base and the anal verge was approximately 4 cm. His sphincter function was intact. There were no palpable lymph nodes. A wide excision with primary closure using a local rotation flap was performed. Histopathological examination showed bundles of mature fibroblasts, mild to moderate cellularity, abundant collagen stroma, and marked increase in adipose tissue entrapped between bundles of dermal collagen fibres (Fig. 2). There was no evidence of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection.

Heart-shaped pedunculated lipofibroma of the coccygeal area in a neonate
Pedunculated lipofibroma is a rare benign hamartomatous condition that is characterized by ectopic adipose tissue in the dermis and a solitary form of nevus lipomatosus cutaneous superficialis. We describe here a neonate with congenital pedunculated lipofibroma. The lesion was removed by simple excision.

Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans is a tumor of intermediate malignancy characterized by its aggressive local growth and marked propensity to recur after surgical excision. Many forms of the tumor has been reported. We report a pedunculated form of tumor. A 45-year-old woman felt a growing tumor on her trunk for 6 years but did not seek medical consultation until it had ulcerated 6 months ago. Sk...
متن کاملOral Fibrolipoma of Oral Cavity
Fibrolipoma, a benign tumor, is classified as a variant of conventional lipoma. It usually presents as a soft, smoothsurfaced nodular masses that can be sessile or pedunculated. Most of them are less than 3 cm in size, but it can become much larger. The buccal mucosa and buccal vestibule are the most common intraoral sites. Here, we present a new case of this uncommon oral lipofibroma that pres...

Nanostructures of noble metal materials have been used in organic solar cells for enhancement of performance and light trapping. In this study, we have introduced branched silver cauliflower-like nanopatterns as sub-wavelength structured metal grating in organic solar cells. Self-assembled fabrication process of branched nanopatterns was carried out on a bio-template of cicada wing nanonipple a...
