Bronchial angiolipoma successfully treated by sleeve resection of the right bronchus intermedius: a case report. Angiolipoma is a rare, benign tumor that primarily develops in the limbs and trunk. The occurrence of angiolipoma in the lungs is extremely rare; to date, only two cases of primary bronchial angiolipoma have been reported. Here, we report a case of angiolipoma of the right bronchus intermedius that was successfully treated with sleeve resection and reconstructive surgery. This report presents a case of angiolipoma that developed in the right bronchus intermedius of a 68-year-old man. A chest CT revealed a 10-mm endobronchial mass that was clearly visible as a high-attenuation area of contrast enhancement. Bronchoscopy revealed a submucosal tumor on the anterior wall of the entrance

Hemorrhagic Sudden Onset of Spinal Epidural Angiolipoma Angiolipomas are relatively rare benign tumors. Spinal angiolipomas that generally induce slow progressive cord compression are most commonly found in the thoracic region. A 49-year-old female with obesity presented with a 1-week history of progressively worsening back pain, paresthesia of lower limbs, and gait disturbance. When thoracic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a dorsal epidural mass at the Th5-Th8 level, the patient underwent a laminectomy for gross total excision of the lesion. Both mature fatty tissue and abnormal proliferating vascular elements with thin or expanded walls were observed in the resected tumor. Nonfiltrating spinal angiolipoma was diagnosed and confirmed by pathology. After the operation, sensory loss

Spinal extradural angiolipoma: a report of two cases and review of literature Spinal extradural angiolipomas (SEALs) are extremely extraordinary benign extradural lesions. They are infrequently encountered in normal clinical practice although several authors have report single cases or case series. We present two cases of SEAL which we successfully surgical resected with no further neurological

Spinal angiolipoma mimicking a schwannoma: A case report Angiolipomas rarely involve the spinal canal/foramina, and may prove difficult to differentiate from schwannomas. Here we report a patient who presented with a spinal angiolipoma contributing to spinal cord and neural foraminal compression that was difficult to differentiate from a schwannoma. Spinal angiolipomas rarely involve the spinal

Epidural angiolipoma: A rare cause of spinal cord compression Angiolipomas are benign, slow growing lesions, almost always located subcutaneously in the trunc or limbs. They are composed of mature lipocytes admixed with abnormal blood vessels. Spinal epidural angiolipoma are rare accounting for approximately 0.14-1.2% of all spinal axis tumors and 2-3% of epidural spinal tumors. We report the case of a 65 years-old-woman, presenting with complete paraplegia installed since 7 months. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed an epidural dorsal fatty mass. The patient recovered immediately after surgery. The pathological examination concluded to an angiolipoma. Angiolipoma patients most commonly have long-lasting pain and then develop progressive neurological symptoms secondary to spinal cord

Consistent Involvement of Chromosome 13 in Angiolipoma Angiolipoma is a rare benign soft tissue tumor composed of mature adipocytes and blood vessels. Genetic information on angiolipomas is scarce. With the single exception of one tumor which carried a t(X;2)(p22;p12), all angiolipomas hitherto investigated cytogenetically had normal karyotypes. G-banding chromosome analysis was performed on three short-term cultured angiolipomas. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis using a commercially available RB1 deletion probe was also done. All three angiolipomas had abnormal karyotypes with loss or structural rearrangement of chromosome 13. The first tumor had the karyotype 46,XY,-6,del(13)(q14),+mar[cp5], the second had 44~45,XY,t(1;10;15)(p21~22;q24;q24),-13[cp5], and the third

Management and Excision of a 15 cm Paratesticular Angiolipoma Paratesticular tumors are rare and often benign causes of scrotal masses. Intrascrotal angiolipomas are an uncommon paratesticular tumor that has seldom been reported in the literature. This report describes a 77 year old man who presented with a 15 cm extratesticular mass. The mass was removed due to increasing discomfort and specimen pathology confirmed it as an angiolipoma. This case highlights the feasibility of conservative management for slow growing masses, such as angiolipomas.

A case report and review of thoracic spinal angiolipoma While it is a rare entity, spinal angiolipomas are well-defined benign tumors that have been described sporadically in the literature starting from the late 1800s. Composed of mature lipomatous and angiomatous elements, these tumors manifest neurological symptoms due to progressive spinal cord or root compression. We present a case of a thoracic spinal angiolipoma and review the relevant literature. A 68-year-old male with ongoing bilateral lower extremity weakness was found on enhanced magnetic resonance imaging to have an extradural mass in the thoracic spine causing cord compression. A T4-T8 laminectomy and complete excision of the epidural mass resulted in reversal of the patient's neurological symptoms. Histopathology identified

Upper eyelid angiolipoma associated friction in the glide zone A 74-year-old man was examined for a mass in the left upper eyelid. It was inconspicuous in inspection. There was no visual restriction, however a feeling of friction on the superior orbit during lid movement. Through eyelid crease lid incision, a solitary lesion appeared in the preaponeurotic space that orginated from the upper tarsal plate. Excisional biopsy revealed adipose proliferation with patch form vessels. This case represents the second reported angiolipoma of the eyelid in English literature.

Spinal thoracic extradural angiolipoma manifesting as acute onset of paraparesis: Case report and review of literature Angiolipomas are benign tumors most commonly found in the thoracic spine. They are composed of mature adipocytes and abnormal vascular elements that usually present with a slowly progressive course of neurological deterioration. A 35-year-old female, with a prior history of back pain, acutely developed paraparesis. When the thoracic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a dorsal epidural mass at the T3-T5 level, she underwent a laminectomy for gross total excision of the lesion that proved to be an angiolipoma. On the second postoperative day, the patient was again able to ambulate. The angiolipomas of spine are rare causes of spinal cord compression, and those

Angiolipoma on the Lumbar Spine Angiolipomas are composed of mature adipose tissue and blood vessels. Spinal angiolipomas are rare benign tumors with a good prognosis, and most symptoms are due to progressive compression of the spinal cord and root. The treatment of choice is total resection without any additional therapy. We report a case of an epidural angiolipoma on the lumbar spine in a 69 -year-old man with weakness of the lower extremities. Lumbar magnetic resonance images revealed a well-enhanced epidural mass. He underwent laminectomy, and the tumor was completely removed. Pathologic examination confirmed the tumor was an angiolipoma. The patient's symptoms gradually improved postoperatively.

Lumbar Spinal Angiolipoma with Expanding Left Neural Foramen Mimicking Lumbar Schwannoma; Case Report and Review of The Literature To describe a patient with lumbar angiolipoma mimicking schwannoma in the posterolateral side of the spinal canal with expansion of the left lumbar foramen and to discuss the clinical, radiologic, and surgical features of these lesions with literature. Without conducted using the key words "lumbar angiolipoma", "schwannoma ", "spinal angiolipoma", "spinal cord", and "spinal canal". We compared this research with our patient. Bilateral L2 total laminectomy, excision of the tumors and bilateral L2-L3 transpedicular stabilization were performed, and complaints improved prominently. Pathological examination was reported as angiolipoma. The research shows

Epidural spinal angiolipoma: a case series Spinal angiolipomas (SAL) are rare benign tumors, commonly presenting with slow progressive spinal cord compression. There are only about 170 cases identified so far. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become the modality of choice for SAL. The purpose of this article is to report three cases of SAL and their characteristic MRI features. Three cases of epidual spinal angiolipoma from ethnic Han Chinese patients are presented here, including one lumbar and two thoracic tumors. MRI imaging findings were reviewed. Multiple MRI technology for characterization of SAL provides useful information for differential diagnosis and therapeutic management.

Non-Infiltrating Angiolipoma of Floor of Mouth-A Rare Case Report and Literature Review Angiolipoma, a subtype of lipoma is a benign tumour in which adipose tissue and vascular component are intermingled. The tumour occurs commonly in the trunk and extremities and very rarely seen in maxillofacial region. Here we report a case of Non-Infiltrating Angiolipoma (NIAL) in floor of mouth which

Giant angiolipoma of the arm in an elderly patient Introduction Angiolipoma is a histological variant of lipoma and is the most common neoplasm in the trunk and extremities of young adults. It is extremely rare in elderly people, and its size is ≤4cm. Few data are available for large angiolipomas. Case History An 86-year-old patient was admitted to our surgical department due to a large mass on his left arm, which was resected. The specimen measured 19.5 × 15 × 10.5cm. Histopathological examination revealed a benign non-infiltrating angiolipoma. This is the first report of a giant angiolipoma of the arm reported in an octogenarian patient. Conclusions Giant lipomas of the upper extremities are extremely rare. Resection is associated with cure in most patients, but regular follow-up should

Giant calvarial intraosseous angiolipoma: a case report and review of the literature Intraosseous angiolipomas are very rare tumors occurring most commonly in the ribs and mandible. Only two cases with intracranial involvement have been reported in the literature. We report a case of a giant calvarial angiolipoma and its surgical treatment in a 30-year-old female who presented with a slowly

A giant infiltrating angiolipoma of the mediastinum: a case report Angiolipoma is a rare benign neoplasm composed of mature fatty tissue and multiple small abnormal blood vessels. Infiltrating mediastinal angiolipoma is an extremely rare tumor associated with delayed diagnosis. A 42-year-old woman was presented with 3-month history of mild chest tightness. Imaging of the chest showed a large mass with fat densities in the middle superior mediastinum. A presumptive diagnosis was a tumor of liposarcoma. The patient was scheduled for a thoracotomy. After the excision, the symptoms were relieved and histological study revealed that the tumor was an angiolipoma. The patient recovered very well and was discharged 7 days after the surgery. After 7 months of follow-up the patient was clinically

Intraarticular Giant Size Angiolipoma of the Knee Causing Lateral Patellar Dislocation Angiolipomas are benign tumors usually seen in patients during their 2 and 3 decades. The subcutaneous region of the trunk, neck and extremities are the places where they generally settle. There is only one case report on angiolipoma in the knee joint that was resected by arthroscopic procedure in the English literature. We present a case of a giant-size multilobular non-infiltrating angiolipoma, extending outside of the right knee joint and causing lateral patellar dislocation in a thirteen-year-old boy. A large encapsulated mass with fatty and soft-tissue components on magnetic resonance imaging was suggestive of a liposarcoma. However, the diagnosis after the tru-cut biopsy was angiolipoma. The Quadriceps

Bronchoscopic resection of bronchial angiolipoma: A rare case report Angiolipoma is a rare benign tumor that most commonly occurs in the extremities and trunk. Angiolipomas originating in the bronchial tree are extremely rare. To the best of our knowledge, only one such case, confined to the bronchus intermedius, has been reported to date. The present study describes the case of an asymptomatic

Spinal extradural angiolipoma manifested after normal vaginal delivery Extradural spinal angiolipomas are extremely rare benign neoplasms made up of mature lipocytes with abnormal blood vessels. Spinal angiolipomas represent only 0.14-1.2% of all spinal axis tumours. A case of thoracic spinal extradural angiolipoma producing acute spinal cord compression in a 35-year old housewife is presented . Patient presented with sudden onset of lower limbs paralysis and urinary incontinence for 1 month after vaginal delivery. Patient was diagnosed as dorsal spine angiolipoma which was treated surgically with excellent outcome. Spinal angiolipomas are rare tumours but it is mandatory to include it in the differential diagnosis of the spinal extradural space occupying lesions. Pregnancy and vaginal delivery
