From a review of the literature, it would appear that lipomas of the foot are relatively rare and that, when they do exist, they are of little clinical significance other than cosmetic appearance. The authors presented a case in which the size, location, and character of the mass predisposed the patient to entrapment syndrome of the intermediate dorsal cutaneous nerve. It is important to emphasize, however, that in these cases symptoms are related to a pressure phenomenon and are not a direct result of tumor physiology.
从文献综述来看，足部脂肪瘤似乎相对罕见，而且即便存在，除了外观影响外，它们几乎没有临床意义。作者报告了一例病例，肿块的大小、位置和特征使患者易患足背中间皮神经卡压综合征。然而，必须强调的是，在这些病例中，症状与压迫现象有关，并非肿瘤生理的直接结果。
