Abstract:
A lipomatous tumor originating in the uterus is a rare benign neoplasm, and most reported cases have been of the mixed type. Authenticated cases of pure lipomas of the uterus are extremely rare. We report one such case in which the findings of magnetic resonance imaging provided the basis for preoperative diagnosis.
