Abstract:
Fatty tumours are,the most common soft tissue tumours whereas they are among the rarest tumours in bone. Dahlin quoted an incidence of 1 in 1, 000 of all bone tumours, and fatty tumours in bone are almost single intraosseous lipoma and of four types; I. Soft tissue lipomata or liposarcomata, secondarily affecting bone. 2. Parosteal lipomata. 3. Intraosseous lipomata. 4. Liposarcoma of bone. Here we report a case of multiple intraosseous lipomas in a 23 year old woman.
