  • Title: Intraosseous lipoma.
    Author: Leeson MC, Kay D, Smith BS.
    Journal: Clin Orthop Relat Res; 1983 Dec; (181):186-90. PubMed ID: 6641052.
    Abstract:
    Intraosseous lipoma is the rarest benign primary tumor of bone. The incidence is less than one per 1,000 bone tumors. Because of its rarity and non-specific clinicopathologic findings, large biopsy specimens are needed for an accurate diagnosis. Once diagnosis has been established, a conservative treatment protocol is mandatory. The prognosis is generally excellent, and recurrences have not been reported.
