Deep lipomas are often misdiagnosed. This report details two cases of infiltrating lipoma, highlighting their clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic features for better recognition and management.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Radiology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Deep or infiltrating lipoma is a challenging clinical diagnosis.
  • Misdiagnosis is common, potentially delaying appropriate treatment.

Observation:

  • Two female patients, aged 92 and 62, presented with progressively enlarging upper limb tumors.
  • Clinical examination suggested deep lipoma.

Findings:

  • Magnetic resonance imaging and histology confirmed deep lipoma.
  • Liposarcoma, a key differential diagnosis, was effectively ruled out.
  • Surgical excision resulted in successful outcomes with no recurrence.

Implications:

  • These cases underscore the importance of considering infiltrating lipoma in the differential diagnosis of limb masses.
