VERGARA PAGES, Julio AJ; FERRER LOZANO, Yovanny; RODRIGUEZ REYNA, Juan C.  e  MEDINA GONZALEZ, Maria E. Lipoma with infiltrative muscular pattern. Rev Cubana Ortop Traumatol [online]. 2006, vol.20, n.2, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3100.

Lipomas may grow until reaching a large size and they are classified into 2 types: cutaneous or superficial, when they are encapsulated in the superficial soft tissues; and deep or subfascial, when its origin is delimited or diffuse and they present deep intraosteal, intermuscular and intramuscular structures. The latter is rare, its localization may be unnoticed, and it takes a pattern of infiltrative growth through the striated muscle fibers that makes necessary to differentiate it from the malignant lesions of the adipose tissue. That's why, a case with infiltrative muscular lipoma on the right lower limb was reported.

Palavras-chave : lipoma; striated muscle; infiltrative pattern.
