Intraoral Lipoma - A Rare Case Report.

Abstract

Lipoma is a common benign tumour of mesenchymal tissues of body with a rare occurrence in the oral cavity. The commonest intra oral site of lipoma is buccal mucosa followed by tongue, retromolar region, buccal vestibule and floor of mouth. Here, we present a case of intra oral lipoma in the labial mucosa which was surgically excised under local anaesthesia and sent for histopathological examination. The histopathological examination showed mature adipocytes arranged in sheets which helped us to confirm the diagnosis of lipoma.
