Abstract

Lipomas are one of the most common benign mesenchimal tumors in human body.Intramuscular (infiltrating) lipoma an extremely rare variant of lipoma. Intramuscular lipomasmay mimic malignant tumors, because of its large size, deep location and their ability to infiltrateadjacent muscles and recur locally. We present an intramuscular lipoma of the scapula in a 15year-old girl and also review the international literature concerning about the clinicalpresentation, microscopically characteristics, differential diagnosis and treatment
