In the present case report, we discuss a case of an uncommon giant lipoma in the left lower abdomen of a 55-year-old female. The case is presented to highlight the need to consider lipoma as one of the possibilities in cases with subcutaneous masses. Despite its abnormal location and considerable magnitude, surgical excision under short general anesthesia resulted in successful outcomes without immediate complications. Finally, by comparing with similar circumstances, it is possible to recognize that individualized management strategies based on patient characteristics can benefit surgical considerations. The significant message is that timely intervention, comprehensive assessment, and teamwork are essential in achieving satisfactory outcomes among patients with rare cases of lipomas, such as this one.
在本病例报告中,我们讨论了一名55岁女性左下腹罕见巨大脂肪瘤的病例。该病例旨在强调在皮下肿块病例中,需将脂肪瘤视为可能的病因之一。尽管其位置异常且体积较大,但在短效全身麻醉下进行手术切除取得了成功,且无即刻并发症。最后,通过与类似情况进行比较,可以认识到基于患者特征的个体化管理策略有助于手术决策。重要的是,对于此类罕见脂肪瘤病例的患者,及时干预、全面评估和团队协作对于取得满意的治疗效果至关重要。
