摘要

Lipomas are benign mesenchymal tumors of adipose tissue (Egido-Moreno et al. in J Clin Exp Dent 8:e597–603, 2016). It commonly occurs in subcutaneous tissue but is rarely found in the oral cavity. Intraoral lipomas account for less than 5% of all head and neck lipomas (Mehendirratta et al. in BML Case Rep 2016:bcr2016215586, 2016). Lipomas are most common in the 4th and 6th decades of life and occur mostly in the buccal mucosa. They are often seen in the subcutaneous and retroperitoneal spaces, which contain fat (Adoga et al. in J Med Case Rep 2:382, 2008) and can occur anywhere in the body, thus being called the universal tumor or ubiquitous tumor. This case report details a rare presentation of intraoral lipoma in a middle-aged female, discussing its clinical presentation, diagnosis, surgical management, and histopathological findings. Early diagnosis and surgical excision resulted in a successful patient recovery with no recurrence.
