Area of Science:

Otorhinolaryngology
Surgical Oncology

Background:

Atypical lipomas are rare benign tumors.
Pyriform sinus lipomas present unique diagnostic and surgical challenges.

Observation:

Described is a rare case of an atypical lipoma in the pyriform sinus.
The case presented with unusual clinical and histological features.

Findings:

Endoscopic excision was successfully performed.
No evidence of tumor recurrence was noted over a one-year follow-up period.

Implications:

Endoscopic excision is a viable and effective treatment for pyriform sinus atypical lipomas.
External surgical excision is reserved for recurrent cases, highlighting the minimally invasive approach's efficacy.
