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]
