Spindle cell lipoma is a benign tumor composed of mature adipocytes and uniform spindle cells, it does not exceed usually more than 2.5 cm and can be treated surgically and does not require wide surgical margins. It must be differentiated from liposarcoma and other malignant tumours and can be differentiated based on imaging and histological features. We report a case of 67-year-old male who developed a posterior thoracic mass more than 10 years ago, that grew recently, whose imaging features was suggestive of liposarcoma, and was treated as such.
梭形细胞脂肪瘤是一种由成熟脂肪细胞和均匀梭形细胞组成的良性肿瘤,通常不超过2.5厘米,可通过手术治疗,不需要广泛的手术切缘。它必须与脂肪肉瘤和其他恶性肿瘤相鉴别,可根据影像学和组织学特征进行鉴别。我们报告一例67岁男性,10多年前出现后胸部肿块,近期生长,其影像学特征提示脂肪肉瘤,并按此进行了治疗。
