Dev Lipom: Olgu Sunumu

Lipom insan vücudunun mezenkimal kaynaklı en sık neoplazmı olarak karsımıza 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 sık ortaya çıkmaktadır. Biz bu yazımızda sırtta yaklaşık 20 cm boyutlarında dev kitle şikayeti ile başvuran ve eksizyon sonucu patolojik incelemede lipom olarak değerlendirilen 66 yasında erkek hastayı literatür eşliğinde sunduk.

A Giant Lipoma: A Case Report

Lipoma is the most common mesenchymal neoplasm in the human body. They may rarely become giant masses due to their asymptomatic nature. Differential diagnosis includes many malignant and benign tumors. Total surgical excision is the preferred treatment modality. The average age of affected patients is fifth decade of life. It is 5-10 times more common in males. In this case report, we report a 66 years old male with a giant back mass with a diameter of 20 cm and diagnosed as lipoma after its removal and histopathological examination, and reviewed the literature
