ABSTRACT
Esophageal angiolipoma is a rare disease with unspecific clinical manifestations.This paper reported a case of esophageal angiolipoma confirmed by upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and summarized the clinical manifestations,endoscopic and pathological features,treatment and prognosis of the patients by reviewing the relevant literature,aiming to provide references for clinical diagnosis and treatment of this disease in the future.

We report the case in a 72-year-old man who presented with a right inguinal mass and with a one month history that was initially interpreted as an inguinal hernia. Ultrasonography (US) and computed tomography (CT) demonstrated a right inguinal mass, including myxoid and fat component, extending from the right spermatic cord to the right inguinal subcutaneous layer. Mass excision was performed, and the diagnosis turned out to be angiomyxolipoma. Angiomyxolipoma is a rare tumor and the preoperative diagnosis of this disease is very difficult. However, angiomyxolipoma of the spermatic cord should be considered in the differential diagnosis in patients with an irreducible inguinal mass. Imaging diagnosis, such as US and CT may help to make a preoperative diagnosis.

Sialoangiolipoma is extremely rare in adults. We report a case with an extremely unusual and atypical presentation of sialangolipoma of submandibular gland. The diagnosis of which is done on histopathology in a case with high index of clinical suspicion of pleomorphic adenoma.

Introducción: Los tumores sólidos primarios del omento son extremadamente raros. Como tumores benignos del omento se han descrito los lipomas, leiomiomas, fibromas, y neurofibromas, pero no el angiofibrolipoma. Caso clínico: Varón de 39 años de edad, con dolor abdominal de tres días de evolución localizado en cuadrante inferior derecho del abdomen, acompañado de náusea y vómito, así como dolor en fosa iliaca derecha, signo de McBurney, psoas, obturador y Markle positivos. El laboratorio documentó leucocitosis y bandemia; el ultrasonido abdominal, líquido libre en cavidad y masa no bien definida sugestiva de apendicitis aguda complicada; la laparotomía de urgencia, tumoración de omento mayor con zonas de isquemia, necrosis y hemorragia; el examen histológico, angiofibrolipoma de omento mayor. Conclusiones: El angiofibrolipoma del omento mayor se puede presentar como una urgencia quirúrgica debido a la torsión sobre su propio eje. Ante el hallazgo transoperatorio de una tumoración del omento, la escisión completa con omentectomía es el tratamiento de elección, en tanto se recibe el examen histológico definitivo.
BACKGROUND: Primary solid tumors of the greater omentum are extremely rare. Lipomas, leiomyomas, fibromas, and neurofibromas have been described as benign tumors of the greater omentum, but angiofibrolipomas have not. CLINICAL CASE: We present the case of a 39-year-old male with a 3-day evolution of right lower quadrant abdominal pain associated with nausea and vomiting. McBurney, Psoas, Obturator and Markle signs were all positive. Laboratory analysis revealed leukocytosis and bandemia. Abdominal ultrasound showed free fluid and an undefined mass suggestive of complicated acute appendicitis. Emergency midline laparotomy demonstrated a tumor of the greater omentum with areas of ischemia, necrosis and hemorrhage. Histological exam revealed angiofibrolipoma of the greater omentum. CONCLUSIONS: Angiofibrolipoma of the greater omentum may present as a surgical emergency due to torsion. When a tumor of the omentum is found during surgery, complete excision is the treatment of choice when a definitive histology result is received.

Angiolipoma is a rare benign soft tissue tumor, an unusual variant of lipoma,consisting of fatty and vascular components and located in the subcutis, usually in the trunk and extremities. We report a case of posterior mediastinal angiolipo-ma extending into the spinal canal and showing both fat and angiomatous fea-tures on CT scan.

We report a fifty threes years old female patient, who suffered right lumbar pain, total hematuria and palpable abdominal mass. An abdominal T.A.C. showed a right renal tumor of fat density. Renal Angiomiolipoma an teratoma were considered among neoformative processes. It wasn't found any tumor's extension. Radical nefrectomy was done. The histopatologic diagnosis was renal angiomiolipoma.
