An unusual endobronchial lipoma characterised by pleomorphic, multinucleated giant cells admixed with mature adipose cells developed in a 52 year old woman, arising from the right middle lobe bronchus. Lobectomy was performed and the postoperative course was uneventful.

Omental lipomas are extremely rare tumors of childhood. We report a case of solitary giant lipoma of the omentum in a child, successfully managed by complete excision, without any recurrence on follow-up study.

Carpal tunnel syndrome, in its idiopathic form, is an extremely common entrapment neuropathy in the clinical practice however secondary compressive causes are rare. Among secondary causes, tumors are even rarer. Although lipomas are the most common soft tissue tumor in the body, <5% of the benign tumors of the hand are lipomas. A 48-year old manual laborer man presented to us with a two-year hi...

CASE PRESENTATION A 71-year-old female presented with a large asymptomatic mass, which h...

Colonic lipoma, a very rare form of benign tumor, is typically detected incidentally in asymptomatic patients. The size of lipoma is reported variously from 2 mm to 30 cm, with higher likelihood of symptoms as the size is bigger. Cases with symptom or bigger lesion are surgically resected in principle; endoscopic resection, which has developed recently with groundbreaking advance of endoscopic ...

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...

lipomas of the gasterointestinal tract are relatively uncommon in clinical practice. most cases are asymptomatic with small tumor size and do not need any special treatment but the large ones are known to cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, obstruction, intussusceptions, and bleeding. the majority (90%) of these lesions are submucosal with predominantly right sided with a slight preponderanc...
