摘要
Lipomas are the most common benign mesenchymal soft tissue neoplasms. They originate from mature adipose tissue and may arise in any location where fat is present. Lipomatous tumors account for 15-20% of the cases located in head and neck region. Nasopharyngeal manifestation is extremely rare with only a few reports described in the literature. The authors present an unusual case of 50-year-old female with lipoma of nasopharynx with unspecific clinical symptoms.
