What is lipoma

First of all, lipoma is a common benign tumor, which can occur in any fat area. Some cases occurred in the limbs, mainly in the subcutaneous, can also be seen in the deep part of the limbs and between the muscle abdomen, patients are older, children are rare. Most of the deep lipomas grow along the muscle and can reach the periosteum, but rarely invade the adjacent bones. Lipoma is rarely malignant and easy to be resected.

Secondly, under the condition of abnormal fat metabolism and other inducements, the activity of lipomatogenic factor is further enhanced, which combines with some gene fragments in normal cells of the body to form abnormal gene mutation, causing abnormal proliferation of normal fat cells and surrounding tissue cells, leading to fat tissue deposition, and protruding masses to the body surface or various internal organs, namely lipoma .

Finally, lipoma generally appears in the trunk, abdominal cavity and limbs of the body, and there is a clear boundary between lipoma and the tissue around the skin. It is a soft, slow growing and small material. The tumor is composed of differentiated and mature adipocytes, and the tumor tissue is divided into adipose lobules of different sizes by fibrous bands. Among them, lipoma with more fibrous components is also called fibrolipoma, and lipoma with abundant blood vessels is also called angiolipoma.
