Intraoral Lipoma: A Case Report
Аннотация
The soft tissue tumor lipoma is quite frequent. Although it is the most mesenchymal tumor of the trunk and proximal regions of the extremities, it is quite uncommon to find it on the oral mucosa, accounting for just 1% to 5% of benign oral tumors. There is no specific location that is more prone to lipoma development in the mouth. Some frequent sites are the tongue, buccal mucosa, and the mouth's floor. A Yellowish mass with no symptoms is the normal clinical appearance. In most cases, the overlaying epithelium is unharmed, and superficial blood vessels may be seen passing through and around the tumor. The differential diagnosis might also include granular cell tumors, neurofibroma, traumatic fibroma, and diseases of the salivary glands (mucocele and mixed tumor). Herein a detailed case of a 28-year-old woman with a right-sided lower-lip oral lipoma is presented in this paper.
