Abstrakt: Lipomas are the most frequent mesenchymal benign soft tissue tumors. Here we report a thirty-month-old girl who presented with giant progressively enlarging mass on the right side of the posterior chest wall for the past one and a half years. An ultrasonography found a solid neoplasm measuring 29 cm in its major axis. Patient underwent radical surgical excision of the mass and the histology report confirmed the clinical suspicion of lipoma. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
