    Abstract:
    The case of an intraosseous lipoma involving the left frontal bone is reported. Lipomas of the bone are rare; only three cases of lipomas involving the skull have previously been reported. The differential diagnosis includes a healing bone infarction or fracture, meningioma, hemangioma, and fibrous dysplasia. Diagnosis prior to surgery is difficult.
