We report a case of an intramuscular lipoma with the following karyotype: 46,XY,t(12;14) (q14–15;q24). To our knowledge, this is the third report of a t(12;14) as a sole abnormality in a lipoma. © Elsevier Science Inc., 1998

An unusual case of bilateral intratentorial lipomas with extension into Meckel's caves and the cerebellopontine angle is described. Surgical and histopathologic correlation demonstrate that the lipoma encased the trigeminal nerve in Meckel's caves. The origin of the lipoma from the anteromedial margins of the tentorium is discussed and correlated with a recently proposed theory for the developm...

lipoma is a benign mesenchymal tumor of fat with uncertain pathogenesis. although the most common mesenchymal neoplasm in trunk and proximal portions of the extremities, it is rarely seen in the oral cavity. oral lipomas are clinically soft, smooth-surfaced nodular masses that mostly are less than 3 cm in size. typically the tumor is asymptomatic unless bitten or become noticeable because of th...

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.

Congenital tumors of the oral cavity are not common.Teratoids are the most common tumors, and in rare cases are associated with cleft soft palate. In this paper a rare case of Epignathus with cleft soft palate, bifida tongue, jaw malocclusion, tongue lipoma, Hypertelorism and low-set ears has been presented. A female infant with a large mass covered with skin and hair arising from hard palate, ...

Giant lipomas are benign soft tissue tumors found rarely in the neck and are still rarer in the anterior part of the neck. A 70-year-old male patient was presented with a huge swelling measuring 35 cm in maximum dimension, in the front of the neck, reaching up till the umbilicus. The swelling was painless, slow growing and acquired the huge size in approximately 20 years. Ultrasound and CT scan...

a one-day-old male holstein calf was presented with a palpable subcutaneous mass, extending from the parotid to the orbital region, involving the entire right side of the face and a large flabby mass without any evidence of inflammation or edema on the tongue. macroscopically, the cut surface of the lingual mass appeared slightly lobulated, pink, with a mucoid appearance and gelatinous consiste...
