A Giant Lipoma Presenting With Neurological Symptoms: A Rare Clinical Presentation.

A lipoma is the most common benign soft tissue tumour. Also known as 'universal tumours', lipomas can occur anywhere where there is adipose tissue. Most of them do not require surgical intervention. However, an increase in size, pain and cosmetic deformity might require surgical excision. A sudden increase in size might be secondary to malignant transformation, and hence any suspicion requires histopathological evaluation. This report presents the case of a 54-year-old female patient who was diagnosed with a giant intramuscular lipoma, causing neurological symptoms. She underwent excision for the same under spinal anaesthesia.
