Abstract:
The angiolipoma is well circumscribed, benign neoplasm, composed of mature fat cells and well developed arterioles, venules and capillaries, in which fibrin thrombi often form. We experienced 4 adult male patients who had free movable, subcutaneous nodular masses on the upper extremities, the abdomen, the back and the buttock. All of them were confirmed as angiolipoma by the clinical and histopathological findings.
