  • Title: Lipid cyst: classic and atypical appearances.
    Author: Evers K, Troupin RH.
    Journal: AJR Am J Roentgenol; 1991 Aug; 157(2):271-3. PubMed ID: 1853804.
    Abstract:
    Lipid cysts, a specific type of fat necrosis, frequently have a pathognomonic appearance on radiographs. This consists of a lucent lesion surrounded by a smooth rim that may or not be calcified. Occasionally, lipid cysts with unusual mammographic appearances are encountered. An appreciation of some of these appearances may prevent unnecessary biopsies.
