A lipoma of the diaphragm was found at surgery in a 69-year-old man. Postmortem examination offered an unusual opportunity for radiological/pathological correlation. Diaphragmatic lipomas are usually asymptomatic and present radiographically as smooth, rounded masses which generally arise from the posterolateral portion of one hemidiaphragm. They may appear less radiopaque than would be expected of a lesion that size. Certain features of this case suggest that the lipoma may have been the result of chest trauma.
在一名69岁男性的手术中发现了膈肌脂肪瘤。尸检为放射学/病理学相关性研究提供了一个不同寻常的机会。膈肌脂肪瘤通常无症状，在影像学上表现为光滑的圆形肿块，一般起源于一侧半膈肌的后外侧部分。它们的不透光程度可能比预期大小的病变要低。该病例的某些特征表明，脂肪瘤可能是胸部创伤的结果。
