Area of Science:
- Neurology
- Radiology
- Neurosurgery
Background:
- Intracranial lipomas are rare congenital tumors composed of mature adipose tissue.
- They often occur along the midline structures of the brain, such as the corpus callosum and suprasellar region.
- Diagnosis is typically made via neuroimaging techniques.
