  • Title: Transmural thoracic lipoma: CT and MRI features.
    Author: Labuski MR, Hopper KD.
    Journal: Magn Reson Imaging; 1993; 11(4):593-4. PubMed ID: 8316072.
    Abstract:
    Lipomas are common benign neoplasms of the chest wall. However, their extension from the pleural space through the ribs into the superficial tissues of the chest wall has been described only twice previously, both by computed tomography (CT). A case is presented of a transmural chest wall lipoma diagnosed by MRI with CT correlation. The advantages of MRI in the diagnosis of these unique neoplasms are described.
