Abstract This paper presents a rare case of infantile infiltrating lipoma in the buttock. The usefulness of magnetic resonance imaging of the tumor in the follow-up study is discussed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

We present a case of a giant lipoma discovered 14 years after the traumatic injury in a patient who presented with pain in the right leg. [jmedicalcasereports.biomedcentral.com]

It is benign and presents in adulthood as a small circumscribed mass. The anatomic distribution is wide with relative sparing of the head, hands, and feet. [mhmedical.com]

A survey of buttock tumors suggested that when pain is present, it is usually due to cyst formation in old haematomas, and pain along the course of the sciatic nerve and its branches was present in 40 % of the cases [ 12 ]. [oncohemakey.com]

• Aspiration

  Fine-needle aspiration may be useful preoperatively to exclude a liposarcoma. Recurrences are frequent when follow-up is adequately extended. For optimal therapeutic results the excision of the tumor should include a rim of adjacent muscle tissue. [link.springer.com]

  Patient was not forth-coming with finances and this made carrying out computer tomography (CT)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and fine needle aspiration cytology difficult for her. [jmedtropics.org]

  There is also a report of a cutaneous granular cell tumor of skin of the arm diagnosed on fine needle aspiration cytology, which the clinicians had felt was a possible dermatofibroma [ 18 ]. [oncohemakey.com]

The prognosis is more favourable than in any other tumour as it never changes its characters; the only reasons for its removal by operation are its unsightliness and its probable increase in size in the course of years. [manual-of-surgery.com]

Lipomas are multiple in approximately 5% of cases. 1 Etiology and Pathogenesis The majority of lipomas (approximately 75%) show karyotypic abnormalities. [mhmedical.com]

There is no known etiology. [1] [2] Signs and symptoms [ edit ] These lesions are generally asymptomatic, although patients give a long history of a solitary, superficial mass. [en.wikipedia.org]

Althought this topic are one of the most discussed, the etiology remained unknown, so in literature there are only hypothesis. [clinicaldermatology.eu]

An alcohol-abuse or hepatopathological etiology is assumed. Lipedema, in contrast, occurs in women with a genetically determined disorder of fat distribution. [dercums_data.tripod.com]

The etiology is unknown. If the breast examination is otherwise normal, the patient may be referred for cosmetic surgery. The available surgical options vary depending on the location of the hypoplastic breast tissue …. [aetna.com]
