Angiomyxolipoma of the Cheek: A Rare Oral Tumour.

Angiomyxomas, also known as vascular myxolipomas, are a rare type of soft tissue tumor characterized by the proliferation of adipose tissue within a myxoid stroma accompanied by multiple vascular channels. They represent a distinct variant of lipomas and require differentiation from other benign and malignant lipoma subtypes. Despite their rarity, only a few cases of angiomyxolipoma have been documented in medical literature.

Giant mesenteric lipoma in a pre-school child: a case report.

Lipomas are common benign tumors, typically affecting subcutaneous tissues in the head, neck, trunk, and upper limbs, particularly in individuals over 40 years old. However, visceral involvement, such as mesenteric lipomas, is exceedingly rare, with fewer than 50 pediatric cases reported in the English literature. Mesenteric lipomas are generally asymptomatic but may present with non-specific symptoms like abdominal distension or signs of partial or complete intestinal obstruction.

Primary scrotal lipoma in a child: a rare case report and review of literature.

Lipoma is a common benign tumor of the body surface, while scrotal lipoma is relatively rare. We report a case of scrotal lipoma in a 5-year-old boy, which presented as a progressively enlarging scrotal mass. Scrotal ultrasonography highly suggested a lipoma, and a scrotal mass resection was performed, leading to a final pathological diagnosis of benign scrotal lipoma.

Use of radiologic imaging to differentiate lipoma from atypical lipomatous tumor/well-differentiated liposarcoma: Systematic review.

Background: Lipomas and atypical lipomatous tumors or well-differentiated liposarcomas (ALTs/WDLs), pose a diagnostic challenge due to their overlapping clinical and imaging features. Accurate differentiation is crucial as treatment strategies differ significantly between benign lipomas and malignant ALTs/WDLs. In recent years, medical imaging techniques have shown promise in distinguishing lipomas from ALTs/WDLs by providing enhanced visualization and assessment of various imaging parameters.

The Lipid Enigma: A Case Report Highlighting Diagnostic Challenges in Adipocytic Tumors.

Infiltrating lipomas are a rare form of lipomas exhibiting unusual clinical behavior. We report a case of an adipocytic tumor of a 31-year-old male diagnosed with an infiltrating lipoma in the right submandibular region. It exhibits unusual clinical features such as invasion into surrounding structures, posing significant diagnostic challenges.

Tethered cord syndrome in an adult with filum terminale lipoma: A case report.

Background: Filum terminale lipomas (FTLs) are congenital lumbosacral anomalies that can cause tethered cord syndrome (TCS). Most patients with TCS caused by FTL are children, and these are only rarely present in adults.

Case Description: A 64-year-old male presented with long-standing bilateral lower-limb weakness and bladder dysfunction.

Colonic Lipoma Inducing Bowel Intussusception and Transanal Prolapse: A Presentation of a Rare Case.

Colonic lipomas are rare benign tumors that may appear throughout the entirety of the gastrointestinal tract, with a predisposition to appear in the colon. Patients with colonic lipoma are typically asymptomatic, making their diagnosis rare and incidental. This case report intends to investigate and clarify the decision-making process regarding surgical segmental colonic resection versus local excision via the study of a 48-year-old man with ulcerative colitis diagnosed in 2006, undergoing treatment with infliximab and without exacerbations since 2010.

Intraosseous lipoma of the talus.

Lipomas of the talus are rare benign bone lesions. They are usually atraumatic in aetiology with a male preponderance and generally occur between the third and sixth decades of life. We report the case of a man in his 30s who had presented with pain and swelling in the posteromedial aspect of his left ankle of 6 months' duration, associated with functional restrictions, and was diagnosed as a case of intraosseous lipoma involving the talus.

Two Cases of FAVA With an Uncommon Localization in Adults.

The fibroadipose vascular anomaly (FAVA) is a relatively unknown vascular anomaly in the realm of adult dermatopathology. Despite its intramuscular location, dermatologists often encounter cases, approaching them surgically under the presumption of a potential lipoma. This entity was first described in 2014, and consequently, many FAVA cases may be concealed in our archives under diagnoses of other entities that require differential diagnoses, such as intramuscular fast-flow vascular anomaly.

Osteolipoma of the hand: A case report.

Introduction: Osteolipoma is a rare variant of lipoma characterized by osseous metaplasia within adipose tissue. Its occurrence in the hand is exceptionally uncommon. This article aimed to report a case of osteolipoma in the hand.

Colocolic intussusception causing by a large lipoma of the ascending colon: A rare case report.

Intussusception is a rare condition in adults that occurs when a segment of the bowel telescopes into the lumen of the more distal segment. Colocolic intussusception accounts for only 8.3-38% of all intussusception cases in adults, the majority due to malignant causes such as adenocarcinoma, lymphoma, leiomyosarcoma, undifferentiated carcinoma.

Challenges in the diagnosis and management of soft tissue tumors of the oral cavity.

Soft tissue lesions are among the most prevalent forms of tumors or tumor-like alterations within the oral cavity. They exhibit a wide spectrum of characteristics, ranging from benign, noninvasive lesions to malignant tumors, which collectively present a diagnostic challenge. A 67-year-old patient presented with an incidental finding of induration on the right cheek during dental hygiene.

Accessory breast tissue-A matter for exigence!

Background: The accessory breast tissue is found in 6%. It is seen commonly in the axilla. It is asymptomatic or causes pain, restricts arm movement, causes cosmetic problems, or causes anxiety.

Dynamic Ultrasound Assessment and Guided Medial Plantar Nerve Hydrodissection for Master Knot of Henry Syndrome.

A 27-year-old female presented with persistent right medial plantar pain that developed over six months following an ankle sprain. The pain, described as sharp and radiating to the toes, progressively worsened, affecting her ability to walk. An initial ultrasound examination suggested medial plantar nerve compression by a lipoma, prompting her referral for ultrasound-guided hydrodissection.

The volcano sign and mucus outflow by colonoscopy - Low grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm.

An 82-year-old woman presented with painless hematochezia. Colonoscopy revealed a submucosal tumor-like mass in the cecum. The appendiceal orifice was identified in the center of the prominence, showing the volcano sign.

Lipomatous Neoplasms of Soft Tissue: A Contemporary Review.

This review summarizes the clinicopathologic features of various lipomatous tumors of soft tissue and addresses some recent conceptual issues relating to adipocytic neoplasms, such as atypical spindle cell/pleomorphic lipomatous tumor and myxoid pleomorphic liposarcoma, and provides an update on the molecular aspects of these tumors. Recent advances in cytogenetic characterization and classification of lipomatous tumors are reviewed, and the genetic importance of distinct chromosomal aberrations are briefly discussed.

Pacinioma of Lumbosacral Skin in Closed Spinal Dysraphism.

Closed spinal dysraphism (CSD) is a congenital condition caused by a failure in secondary neurulation during embryogenesis. CSD is associated with characteristic cutaneous stigmata often identified clinically. Rarely, such stigmata have been reported to occur with complex congenital intraspinal lipomas containing Pacinian corpuscle hyperplasia.
