A rare case of intrauterine lipoma: A masterful masquerade

2019 
Introduction: Pure lipomas of the uterus are exceedingly rare, and their origin is of deep interest in terms of histogenesis. The tumours often pose a diagnostic challenge and a host of differentials are made on clinical and radiological assessment. The authors present a case of a pure uterine lipoma detected at a peripheral Airforce hospital. Materials and Methods: Case report with clinical, ultrasound and histopathological findings. Conclusion: A rare case with a controversial histogenesis and recently described chromosomal anomalies adds to our knowledge of this uncharacteristic lesion in the uterine corpus. Keywords: Hamartoma, Leiomyoma, Lipo-leiomyoma.
