Intussusception is a common cause of mechanical bowel obstruction among children, with older children being more likely to have a pathological lead point. Intestinal neoplasms are rare and small intestinal lipomas are even less common. Herein we describe a case of a 7-year-old boy with ileoileal intussusception, with an ileal lipoma as the pathological lead point. Computed tomography was useful...

Primary cardiac tumors are rare. The cardiac lipoma cases have been sparsely reported. We report a case of interventricular septal lipoma complicated with mild tricuspid regurgitation in a 65-year-old Chinese male. The patient presented with shortness of breath after exertion. His diagnosis was made with echocardiogram, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, cardiac computed tomography and post-op...

Intraoral lipomas are benign and relatively rare tumors, although they occur with higher frequencies in other areas, most especially the back, abdomen and shoulders of adults. They have no gender predilection and predominantly affect the buccal mucosa. This paper describes a case of intramuscular (infiltrating) lipoma on the buccal mucosa of a 60-year old male which is relatively rare when comp...

We report a case of gastric lipoma, a rare benign stomach tumor. There are approximately 200 cases previously described in literature. A male, 62-year-old patient with no clinical complaint presented a tumor lesion in the stomach antrum found in a routine upper endoscopy. A surgical resection (subtotal gastrectomy) was done and the histological examination showed submucosal lipoma without signs...

A lipoma is a benign tumor of fatty tissues. It usually harmless; however, may sometimes need laboratory examinations to confirm diagnosis. Conventional medicines are mostly ineffective in diminishing fat spar, therefore surgical removal preferred. This article report case studies two individuals fairly large lipoma, which were treated with ultra-diluted atropine belladonna. In both cases the w...

Gastrointestinal tract (GIT) lipomas are rare, benign mesenchymal neoplasm affecting all segments of the GIT and colon is affected most frequently. Reported incidence colonic varies from 0.2% to 4.4%. Adult intussusception represents 1% bowel obstructions 5% intussuceptions. rare tumors due a gastrointestinal lipoma constitute an infrequent clinical entity. Although common disease in children, ...

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...

Sialolipoma is a recently described histologic variant of lipoma and is characterized by well-demarcated proliferation of mature adipocytes with secondary entrapment of salivary gland elements. These tumors have been observed in both the major and minor salivary glands, with more than 20 cases being reported in the English literature. In general, the clinical presentation of sialolipomas of the...

Lipoma is a common tumor of soft tissue. Its location on the oral mucosa is rare, representing 1% to 5% of benign oral tumors although it is the most mesenchymal tumor of the trunk and proximal por-tions of extremities. Lipoma of the oral cavity may occur in any region. The buccal mucosa, tongue, and floor of the mouth are among the common locations. The clinical presentation is typically as an...

Although lumbosacral lipoma is reported to occur in 4-8 of 100,000 patients, and 66% of lipomyelomeningoceles in young patients are accompanied by hypertrophic filum terminale, it is very rare to find two isolated spinal lipomas simultaneously. A 3 month-old baby girl was admitted to the hospital for a protruding, non-tender, soft, subcutaneous 2.5 cm mass of the lumbosacral area that had been ...
