摘要
Adipose tumors are rare in pediatric age and are commonly represented by benign forms: lipoma and lipoblastoma/lipoblastomatosis. Generally localized in subcutaneous tissue of the trunk and extremities, they can exceptionally occur as giant intra-peritoneal or pelvic masses. These tumors could reach considerable size prior to diagnosis since they are asymptomatic. The authors report a case series of three giant abdomino-pelvic adipose tumors.
