Massive fibrolipoma of a toe.

ABSTRACT

Soft-tissue tumors of the toes are not particularly common; more tumors of the toes arise from the skin. The deeper tumors can be either benign or malignant and must be treated with caution until a histologic diagnosis has been made. However, malignant soft-tissue tumors of the toes are fairly rare. An unusual case of a massive benign lipoma was treated by an excisional biopsy (disarticulation).
