BACKGROUND
Lipoblastoma is a rare, benign, fatty tissue tumor that occurs in infancy and early childhood. The most common tumor locations are the extremities and the torso. The location of this tumor in the chest wall and an intrathoracic extension is uncommon.
CASE REPORT
We present a case of a 3-year-old boy with anterior chest wall lipoblastoma with an intrathoracic extension. Computed tomography was suggestive of lipoblastoma. The mass was completely excised through a right posterolateral thoracotomy. The histologic examination of the lesion confirmed the diagnosis of lipoblastoma.
CONCLUSION
Although extremely rare, chest wall lipoblastoma should be included in the differential diagnosis of thoracic mass in childhood.
背景
脂肪母细胞瘤是一种罕见的良性脂肪组织肿瘤，发生于婴儿期和儿童早期。最常见的肿瘤部位是四肢和躯干。该肿瘤位于胸壁并向胸腔内延伸的情况并不常见。
病例报告
我们报告一例3岁男孩，患有前胸部壁脂肪母细胞瘤并向胸腔内延伸。计算机断层扫描提示为脂肪母细胞瘤。通过右后外侧开胸术将肿块完全切除。病变的组织学检查证实了脂肪母细胞瘤的诊断。
结论
尽管极为罕见，但胸壁脂肪母细胞瘤应纳入儿童胸部肿块的鉴别诊断中。
