Uterine lipoleiomyoma is a rare benign neoplasm that falls under the umbrella of uterine leiomyoma. Upon histological examination, leiomyoma is primarily composed of smooth muscle cells of the uterus. Whereas, lipoleiomyoma reveals a characteristic pattern of mature adipocytes interspersed in uterine smooth muscles. This paper is discussing a case of a 60-year-old postmenopausal grand multiparous woman who presented with postmenopausal bleeding. A primary diagnosis of leiomyoma was made, however, histopathological diagnosis revealed its rare variant, lipoleiomyoma.
子宫脂肪平滑肌瘤是一种罕见的良性肿瘤，属于子宫平滑肌瘤的范畴。在组织学检查中，平滑肌瘤主要由子宫平滑肌细胞组成。而脂肪平滑肌瘤则呈现出成熟脂肪细胞散布于子宫平滑肌中的特征性模式。本文讨论了一例60岁绝经后多产妇女出现绝经后出血的病例。最初诊断为平滑肌瘤，但组织病理学诊断显示其为罕见的变异型，即脂肪平滑肌瘤。
