Lipomas are benign, encapsulated, soft-tissue tumours composed of well-differentiated adipocytes. They arise in the subcutaneous tissue typically on the back, shoulder and neck. Lipomas have been known to cause symptomatic obstruction to venous flow by compression. We report a case of venous obstruction syndrome due to a small lipoma within the femoral sheath.
脂肪瘤是由分化良好的脂肪细胞组成的良性、有包膜的软组织肿瘤。它们通常出现在背部、肩部和颈部的皮下组织中。已知脂肪瘤可通过压迫导致静脉血流出现症状性梗阻。我们报告一例因股鞘内小脂肪瘤引起的静脉梗阻综合征病例。
