Preface

Lipoma is a frequently discerned, benign, encapsulated, soft tissue neoplasm composed of aggregates of mature adipose tissue cells. As a derivative of mesenchymal connective tissue, lipoma depicts mature, white adipocytes with uniform nuclei, simulating normal adipose tissue. It is the commonest mesenchymal, soft tissue tumefaction, configuring an estimated 16% of mesenchymal neoplasms.
