Intraoral lipomas are rare benign tumors of adipose cells. This report details an extremely rare case of a lipoma occurring on the hard palate, highlighting its unusual location.

Area of Science:

  • Oral Pathology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Dermatopathology

Background:

  • Intraoral lipomas are benign mesenchymal neoplasms originating from mature adipose cells.
  • They represent a small fraction, less than 4.4%, of all benign oral soft tissue tumors.
  • Differential diagnosis includes other soft tissue lesions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report an extremely rare case of intraoral lipoma.
  • To highlight the occurrence of lipoma in an unusual location within the oral cavity.

Main Methods:

  • Case report presentation.
  • Clinical and histopathological examination (details not provided in abstract).

Main Results:

  • A case of lipoma was identified.
