AbstractLipomas in the head and neck region usually occur in the immediate subcutaneous tissue, and only rarely in the upper aerodigestive tract. We report here a case of a 58-year-old female with a lipoma in the peri-tonsillar space. The tumour originated from the left peri-tonsillar space over the palate tonsil and partly protruded into the oral cavity. MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) showed not only the acccurate location of the tumour but also suggested its pathology. To our knowledge, a lipoma in the peri-tonsillar space is quite rare and MRI is useful in its diagnosis.
