Cavernous angiolipoma of the Subcutis: A case report
Abstract
Lipomas are a benign, soft-tissue tumor consisting of mature adipocytes and present as a slow-growing, painless mass. Angiolipomas are a benign variant of the lipoma and consist of adipose tissue separated by a network of anastomosing capillaries. Rare reports of angiolipomas with vasculature demonstrating a “cavernous” appearance mimicking that of cavernous hemangiomas have been described in the literature. Herein, we report a case of a subcutaneous angiolipoma with a rarely described cavernous vascular proliferation, previously designated as a cavernous angiolipoma.
