introduction: lipomas of the larynx are very rare benign lesions; macroscopically, they resemble retention cysts, so their diagnosis is usually made after surgery.   case report: a rare case of pediatric paraglottic space lipoma in an 11-year-old boy is explained. the mass was mobile, soft, without fluctuation or pulsation. ct scan revealed a 5.7 cm cervical fat density with regional lymphadeno...

Recently, a case of deep-lobe lipoma with enucleation was reported, but frozen-section biopsy for the confirmation of the malignancy was not done. It has been suggested that lipoma in the deeper tissues should be regarded as a well-differentiated liposarcoma and be treated with wide excision. Our experience is that of a 75-year-old woman who had a mass with fat density in the deep lobe of the r...

Lipomas are common benign neoplasms consisting of mature fatty tissue. They are usually of roundish or ovoid shape and are situated in a single anatomical region. They most frequently occur on the back and in the extremities. Most lipomas are subcutaneous and require no imaging evaluation. When deep, large and unusual in location, MRI can identify and localise these tumours and is the best expl...

Lipoblastoma is a benign mesenchymal tumor of embryonic adipose tissue, uncommon in infancy. Multicentricity, absence of a capsule and histopathology best defines a lipoblastoma. Synonyms for this lesion are embryonic lipoma, fetal lipoma, lipoblastic tumor, and congenital lipomatoid tumor. Lipoblastoma is more common in males (approximately 80%), is usually located in the subcutaneous soft tis...

A lipoma is a slow-growing, benign tumor and is usually asymptomatic; hence, surgical intervention can often be avoided in patients with these tumors in the cervical and cranial area. Lipomas arise most commonly in the subcutaneous fat, but occasionally in muscle tissue. Intramuscular lipomas in the cervico-cranial area have rarely been reported. We describe here a patient with a large intramus...

We present the case of an unusually located intracranial lipoma in a 17-year-old patient with partial epilepsy who was being controlled with medication. The lipoma was located deep in the left sylvian fissure, in the inferior parietal lobule, associated with cortical dysplasia of the surrounding supramarginal gyrus. Abnormal vasculature was detected adjacent to and within the adipose mass. The ...

Lipoma is one of the most common benign soft tissue tumors. However, giant lipomas compressing and deforming neurovascular structure rarely occur in lateral neck. A 70-year-old man visited our outpatient clinic for treatment a visible painless neck mass that had been identified 2 years prior. Neck magnetic resonance imaging revealed 10 × 9 4 cm fatty located between sternocleidomastoid sternohy...
