| Popis: | Fibrolipoma is one of the rare variants of the lipoma, and very few cases have been reported in the thigh. These lesions are generally painless, but can grow to large size due to malignant transformation to liposarcoma. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice. The prognosis is generally good as recurrence rate is very less if adequate excision is done. In old age patient, risk of malignant transformation is very high leading to early excision. Here, we present a case of fibrolipoma in thigh in 57 year old female and its further management. |
