[Unusual localizations of subcutaneous lipomas: case report].

Abstract

Subcutaneous lipomas are very common tumors preferentially occurring in the neck and trunk. Although rare and unusual, they can occur in other parts of the body. Then they should be suspected in patients with subcutaneous swellings. We here report 3 cases of lipomas occurring in rare sites, detailing diagnosis and treatment. They occurred in the interdigital web space of the hand, toe and lateral canthus of the eye.
