  • Title: Lipoma of the floor of the mouth: report of an unusually large lesion.
    Author: Redelinghuys IF, du Preez LA.
    Journal: SADJ; 1998 May; 53(5):245-6. PubMed ID: 9760943.
    Abstract:
    Although lipomas are common, benign tumours found in any part of the body, their occurrence in the oral cavity is relatively rare. An unusual case of a large lipoma appearing on the floor of the mouth in a 77-year-old male, is presented in this paper. The unusual appearance in this case suggests that this tumour should be included as a rare possibility in the differential diagnosis of swellings in the floor of the mouth.
