Spindle cell lipoma (SCL) is a rare distinct variant of lipoma, which presents as a painless, circumscribed, slow-growing, superficial lesion on the lip and can mimic a minor salivary gland tumour. We present a slow growing lower lip lesion and its management. Case Report. A 38-year-old female gave an eight-year history of a slow-growing mass on her lower lip with intermittent change in size. She presented with a submucosal nodule and thin overlying mucosa adjacent to the vermilion border. Surgical excision was carried as the diagnostic and therapeutic approach. Conclusion. Lip SCL is rare, and surgical excision is advocated in order to exclude underlying pathology and minor salivary gland tumours.
梭形细胞脂肪瘤(SCL)是一种罕见的独特脂肪瘤变体,表现为唇部无痛、边界清晰、生长缓慢的浅表病变,可类似小唾液腺肿瘤。我们报告一例生长缓慢的下唇病变及其治疗情况。病例报告。一名38岁女性有下唇肿物生长缓慢8年的病史,大小有间歇性变化。她表现为黏膜下结节,与唇红缘相邻的覆盖黏膜菲薄。采用手术切除作为诊断和治疗方法。结论。唇部SCL罕见,主张手术切除以排除潜在病变和小唾液腺肿瘤。
