Parosteal lipoma is a rare benign soft tissue mesenchymal tumour that may impair limb motor function when located adjacent to neurovascular structures. We report a case of a woman in her 80s with a long-standing lesion in the forearm and consequent sensory and motor function changes. She was admitted for an elective excision of the lipoma. Postoperative evolution was favourable, with marked improvement of limb function. Our aim in sharing this case is to create awareness of these rare deep-seated lipomas that might originate nerve palsy and should therefore be excised as soon as possible to avoid neurological damage.
骨旁脂肪瘤是一种罕见的良性软组织间叶肿瘤，当位于神经血管结构附近时，可能会影响肢体运动功能。我们报告了一位 80 多岁女性的病例，她前臂有一个长期存在的病变，导致感觉和运动功能改变。她因择期切除脂肪瘤而入院。术后恢复良好，肢体功能明显改善。我们分享这个病例的目的是提高对这些罕见的深部脂肪瘤的认识，这些脂肪瘤可能导致神经麻痹，因此应尽快切除，以避免神经损伤。
