ABSTRACT Lipoma is the commonest soft tissue tumor arising anywhere in the body, but its occurrence in the larynx is relatively rare. We present a rarest case of lipoma with cartilaginous metaplasia arising from the larynx just above the anterior commissure. The second case report is about a large spindle cell lipoma of larynx presented with stridor. How to cite this article Megalamani SB, Gadag R, Raza A, Satish A. Lipomas of Larynx: The Rare Entities.

Atypical Lipoma

Lipomas are among the most commonly encountered soft tissue tumors in clinical practice, though they are rare in the foot. Although a presumptive diagnosis is typically made clinically, those tumors with atypical clinical features may require radiological consultation. Difficulty arises when radiographic features are not typical of lipoma. We present a fatty soft tissue tumor of the foot with nonadipose elements on magnetic resonance imaging evaluation. Differentiation of lipoma variants (e.g., spindle cell lipoma, atypical lipoma, pleomorphic lipoma, lipoblastoma, angiolipoma) from liposarcoma based on imaging features is not possible, necessitating surgical resection for definitive histological diagnosis.

Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumors

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT), previously described as inflammatory pseudotumor, can occur at any age but is a recognized soft tissue tumor of childhood. Less than 10 previous cases have been described of IMT affecting the heart, in patients ranging from 5 months to 17 years of age. We present three unusual, but similar, cases of IMT in infants, which were all predominantly intravascular in location, one of which was associated with death due to angiodestructive lesions of the coronary and cerebral arteries. These cases demonstrate an apparently distinct phenotype, with a predominant intravascular location of the tumor. Furthermore, this series highlights the difficulty in categorizing such lesions as benign versus malignant on histological grounds alone. IMT should be considered in the differential diagnosis of unusual pediatric intravascular spindle cell lesions.

Combined Feature

The author describes a benign soft tissue tumor that could be easily mistaken for sarcoma. It represents a combined feature of solitary fibrous tumor and spindle cell lipoma. The clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management of this lesion are discussed. It highlights the importance of proper diagnosis to prevent unnecessary and ineffective treatment by clinicians as the complete excision of this lesion is the treatment of choice and recurrence is very unlikely. It is believed that this case is the first reported case of dendritic myxofibrolipoma occurring in the lower lip mucosa in an Omani patient.
