Uterine Lipoleiomyoma

Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Research and Review - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 1

Abstract

Uterine fibroids or leiomyomas are benign tumors of the uterine smooth muscle. A rare form of these tumors is uterine lipoleiomyoma - benign tumor consisting of a mixture of adipocytes and smooth muscle cells. Lipoleiomyomas of the uterus are typically found in peri and postmenopausal women. Here, we report a case of lipoleiomyoma in a 36 year old woman. We report this case of uterine lipoleiomyoma because of its rarity.
