[Cystic lesion of the calcaneus. Intraosseous lipoma].

چکیده
We report two cases of intraosseous lipoma in the calcaneus of a 38 year old man, complaining about heel pain and a 27 year old woman with no pain. Plain radiographs showed a well-defined cystic lesion in the calcaneus with sclerotic margins. Computed tomography (CT) detected a well-defined, low-density lesion with attenuation values equal to adipose tissue. Magnetic resonance (MR) findings show similar signal intensity with subcutaneous adipose tissue on T1-weighted and T2-weighted images, and STIR-T2 imaging showing low signal intensity with complete suppression indicating the presence of normal fat. As a result, at first intraosseous lipomas could only be identified pathologically, but now it is easy to perform radiological diagnosis using MR.

Bilateral Intraosseous Tumor of the Calcaneus with Imaging-Pathologic Discordance A Case Report and Literatures Review
A case of bilateral intraosseous tumor of the calcaneus with different MRI imaging is presented. On the left, radiological findings suggest intraosseous lipoma, but on the right-sided lesion, imaging studies were not convincing. The microscopic report showed foreign body granulomatous reaction, a rare clinical pathological discordant.

Intraosseous lipoma is a rare, benign primary tumor occurring in the bone. Herein, we reported a 45-year-old manwith chronic right posterior heel pain. In this study, the man was treated conservatively due to plantar fasciitis. Duringa one-month follow-up visit, the patient had no symptoms of relief in the right heel pain. Initially, calcaneal X-raywas taken, which revealed an...
متن کاملIntraosseous calcaneal lipoma with subtalar perforation through cystic degeneration
Intraosseous lipoma is a benign tumor that originates from proliferating mature lipocytes. It often occurs in the metaphysis of long bones of the lower extremity, and also in the calcaneus, humerus, mandible, sacrum and rib bones. Frequently, it involutes spontaneously through a process of infarction, calcification and cyst formation. It can either present as pain or be asymptomatic and only di...

متن کاملAn unusual intraosseous calcaneal lipoma: case report
Intraosseous lipoma, a rare primary benign tumor of the skeleton, is most commonly found in the calcaneus. It may contain homogenous fat, but it may also contain necrosis, calcification, or ossification. It usually does not show contrast enhancement, but there is an interface enhancement between the outer fat plan and the inner fluid part. Herein, we present an unusual 22-year-old male case of ...
