Oral Fibrolipoma-: A Rare Presentation Case Report and Review of Literature
Journal Title: Journal of Advances in Medicine and Medical Research - Year 2017, Vol 23, Issue 10
Abstract
Lipomas are classified as benign soft tissue neoplasms of mesenchymal origin and comprise 4-5% of benign tumors in the body. They are relatively rare in the oral cavity with a rate of 1/5000 individuals. The buccal mucosa, tongue, and floor of the mouth are among the common locations. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice. The fibrolipoma is an unusual histologic variant of lipoma that is comprised of neoplastic fat cells embedded in condensed collegen tissue. Clinicians should be aware of these lesions in order to develop better clinical differential diagnoses. This is a report of a rare case of an oral fibrolipoma in an unusual location in the lower labial oral mucosa. The biological characteristics of the lesion are described.
