| Popis: | Objective The aim of this study was to analyze the clinical and histopathologic features of a series of intraoral lipomas (IL). Study Design The present study was retrospective, observational, and descriptive. All cases of IL diagnosed at an oral pathology laboratory were selected for the study. Clinical data, such as age, sex, location of the lesion, time of evolution, clinical presentation of the lesion, clinical hypothesis of diagnosis, and treatment were collected from the clinical charts. In some cases, to confirm the diagnosis, immunohistochemistry was performed. Results Forty-three cases of IL were studied. Most of them (55.8%) occurred in women. The mean age was 77.4 years, and the most affected site was the buccal mucosa (51%), followed by the tongue (19%). Histologically, the lesions were defined as classic lipomas (53.4%), fibrolipomas (32.5%), spindle-cell lipomas (9.3%), intramuscular lipoma (2.4%), and sialolipoma (2.4%). Regarding to the clinical hypothesis of diagnosis, lipoma was not considered in 42.9% of the cases. Conclusions IL are relatively uncommon tumors. In some cases, particularly in spindle-cells lipomas, immunohistochemistry is an important tool to reach the final diagnosis. |
