INFILTRATIVE LIPOMATOSIS A RARE CASE REPORT IN LEBANON
Journal Title: European Journal of Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Congenital infiltrative lipomatosis of the face (CIL-F) is rare and difficult to treat. It compromises a subgroup of Lipomatous tumors and characterized by collection of nonencapsulated mature lipocytes which infiltrates local tissue resulting in craniofacial deformities. The tumor-like lesion has rapid growth, associated with osseous hyperplasia and high recurrence rate after surgical intervention. Complete surgical excision is often impossible due to its diffuse infiltration and involvement of important facial structures. A few cases CIL-F was found in a literature review.
