Osteochondrolipoma is an exceedingly rare histological variant of lipoma. We present a case of oral lipoma with areas of bone and cartilaginous differentiation. A 51-year-old male patient came with a primary concern of a painless swelling in the mouth that had been present for approximately 3 years. The lesion appeared as a sessile nodule with a smooth surface and a pink color located on the lower lip, measuring 3x3x2 cm. Upon palpation, the lesion was painless and had a soft consistency. An excisional biopsy was conducted. During the laboratory examination, it was observed that the lesion was floating in formalin. Microscopic analysis revealed a well-encapsulated lesion composed of lobules of mature univaculated adipocytes with central areas displaying bone and cartilaginous metaplasia. The final diagnosis was established as osteochondrolipoma. The treatment for this lesion involves complete surgical excision, and recurrences are not anticipated. The prognosis is similar to that of other lipomas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
