Lipogranuloma is a rare inflammatory reactive process related to exogenous or endogenous lipids with an admission to the dermis and subcutis. It is described most frequently in the penis and scrotum of young adults. Lipogranuloma of the female genitalia is a rather uncommon condition. The lesion is histopathologically characterized by fat vacuoles with foreign body type giant cells and scattered lymphocytes.
We described an incidental lipogranuloma of the cervix in a 60-year-old woman who presented with total uterine prolapse.
Although lipogranuloma mostly occurs in young male patients, especially in the genital tract, clinicians should be aware of this entity in the cervix of a postmenopausal woman with uterine prolapse, which may challenge the differential clinical diagnosis.
脂肪肉芽肿是一种罕见的炎症反应过程，与外源性或内源性脂质有关，可累及真皮和皮下组织。最常见于年轻成年人的阴茎和阴囊。女性生殖器脂肪肉芽肿是一种相当罕见的病症。该病变在组织病理学上的特征是含有异物型巨细胞和散在淋巴细胞的脂肪空泡。
我们描述了一名60岁患有完全性子宫脱垂的女性患者偶然发生的宫颈脂肪肉芽肿。
虽然脂肪肉芽肿大多发生于年轻男性患者，尤其是生殖道，但临床医生应注意绝经后子宫脱垂女性宫颈的这一病变，这可能会对临床鉴别诊断构成挑战。
