Intraosseous lipoma of Calcaneum: A rare incidental finding

Abstract

Abstract Intraosseous lipoma is a rare benign lesion of bone. We present a case of an intraosseous lipoma of the calcaneum detected as an incidental finding, as a well‐delineated osteolytic lesion with the central area of calcification, on plain radiography. Diagnosis can be done with a computed tomography scan and/or magnetic resonance imaging.
