We report two cases of uterine lipoleiomyoma in postmenopausal women of ages 52 and 55 years, who presented with complaints of leukorrhea and lower abdominal pain, respectively. Lipoleiomyoma is a rare benign variant of leiomyoma, having an incidence of 0.03%-0.2%. These are benign pelvic tumors which are usually asymptomatic and commonly occur in obese postmenopausal women. However, they can occasionally present with typical leiomyoma symptoms. Imaging plays a crucial role in the diagnosis of benign pelvic tumors. Ultrasonography is the first imaging modality for diagnosis of pelvic tumors in females. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are specific in demonstrating the uterine origin and fat component.
我们报告了两例子宫脂肪平滑肌瘤病例,患者分别为52岁和55岁的绝经后女性,她们分别表现为白带异常和下腹部疼痛。脂肪平滑肌瘤是平滑肌瘤的一种罕见良性变体,发病率为0.03%-0.2%。这些是良性盆腔肿瘤,通常无症状,常见于肥胖的绝经后女性。然而,它们偶尔也会出现典型的平滑肌瘤症状。影像学在良性盆腔肿瘤的诊断中起着至关重要的作用。超声检查是女性盆腔肿瘤诊断的首选影像学方法。计算机断层扫描和磁共振成像在显示子宫起源和脂肪成分方面具有特异性。
