Dev Lipom: Olgu Sunumu

Lipom, insan vücudunun mezenkimal kaynaklı en sık görülen neoplazmı olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Asemptomatik olmaları nedeniyle nadiren de olsa dev boyutlara ulaşabilirler. Ayırıcı tanıda birçok benign ve malign tümoral yapı ile karışabilmesine rağmen tedavide total cerrahi eksizyon yeterlidir. Görülme yaşı ortalama 5. dekaddır ve erkeklerde 5-10 kat daha sık ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bu olguda sırtta yaklaşık 18 cm boyutlarında dev kitle şikayeti ile başvuran ve eksizyon sonucu patolojik incelemede lipom olarak değerlendirilen 44 yaşında erkek hasta literatür e şliğinde sunulmuştur.

Giant Lipoma: A Case Report

Giant Lipoma: A C ase Report Lipoma is the most common mesenchymal neoplasm in the human body. They may rarely become giant masses due to their asymptomat ic nature. Differential diagnosis includes many malignant and benign tumors. T otal surgical excision is the preferred treatment modality. The average age period of the affected patients is the fifth decade of life. It is 5-10 times more common in males. In this case report, we report a 44 -year-old male with a giant back mass with a diameter of 18 cm and diagnosed as lipoma after its removal and histopathological examination, and reviewed the literature.
