  • Title: An unusual location of ossified intramuscular lipoma: a case report.
    Author: Jamshidi K, Qomashi I, Shirazi MR.
    Journal: Acta Med Iran; 2011; 49(9):630-2. PubMed ID: 22052147.
    Abstract:
    Lipoma is the most common soft tissue tumor but the presence of osseous component within the tumor is quite rare. Some studies show that less than 1% of lipomas were ossified. We describe the histological, radiological and diagnostic features of an ossified intramuscular lipoma. To the best of the authors' knowledge, a symptomatic ossified intramuscular lipoma without any cortical erosion and hyperostosis has not been previously reported in the literature.
