Atypical Giant Lipoma in the Left Lower Abdomen: A Case Study.

ABSTRACT

In the present case report, we discuss a case of an uncommon giant lipoma in the left lower abdomen of a 55-year-old female. The case is presented to highlight the need to consider lipoma as one of the possibilities in cases with subcutaneous masses. Despite its abnormal location and considerable magnitude, surgical excision under short general anesthesia resulted in successful outcomes without immediate complications. Finally, by comparing with similar circumstances, it is possible to recognize that individualized management strategies based on patient characteristics can benefit surgical considerations. The significant message is that timely intervention, comprehensive assessment, and teamwork are essential in achieving satisfactory outcomes among patients with rare cases of lipomas, such as this one.
