Introduction:
Lipoblastomatous lesions are mesenchymal tumors of fetal-embryonal fat that are classified into two types: a superficial, well-defined mass (lipoblastoma) or an infiltrative lesion (lipoblastomatosis).
Case Report:
An unique case of mediastinal lipoblastoma in a 27-month-old boy with spinal epidural extension from C7-D9, clinically manifested as a progressive painful.
