Abstract

Introduction: Pedunculated lipofibroma is a challenging case. It’s a slow growing mass lesion which can affect both children and adult. The diagnosis of pedunculated lipofibroma can be confused with other benign papillomas due to their characteristic appearance.

Case presentation: This paper reports a 39-year-old woman, who has a slow growing mass lesion on her left thigh for almost 3 years. The lesion start impending her daily life due to pain and the lesion get bigger which make her get trouble especially when she wants to wear her jeans. The diagnosis of pedunculated lipofibroma can be confirmed by the histopathologic findings showing isolated groups of ectopic mature adipocytes within the dermis. Generally, the tumor itself doesn’t need any specific treatment, however the location and size affect the patient performance. Conclusion: Based on clinicopathological findings, the patient diagnosed with solitary pedunculated lipofibroma located at medial femur sinistra.
