Abstrakt: Lipomas are soft tissue tumors who originate from adipose tissue. Histologically, subtypes ends are defined. These are fibrolipoma, angiolipoma, myxoid lipomas, spindle cell lipoma, pleomorphic lipoma and intramuscular lipoma. When a large proportion of connective tissue is present, the term fibrolipoma is used. Fibrolipoma subtype of the oral cavity is rare. The tumor has been reported to be more frequent in the buccal mucosa. This case report describes the treatment of an asymptomatic fibrolipoma lesion in the right buccal mucosa by local excision. Since asymptomatic lesions usually can only be detected in intraoral examination, physicians should be careful during clinical examinations and have information about rare histological subtype.
