Abstract:
Two cases of intramuscular lipoma occurring in the cheek of a 39-year-old and of a 55-year-old Japanese males are presented. These were excised by the intraoral approach. Histopathologically, these lesions were composed of the adipose cell-like tumor cells infiltrating in the striated muscles. There has been no evidence of tumor recurrence after operation.
