Fatty tumors of the peripheral nerves, although rare, occur with sufficient frequency to pose problems in diagnosis and treatment. Moreover, the nomenclature of these tumors has suffered from controversy over their morpological description. These factors have contributed to a misunderstanding about the treatment of these localized nerve abnormalities leading, in the past, to unnecessary radical nerve excisions with resultant total motor and sensory deficit. This paper reviews the various types of fatty tumors, describes the morphology and pathophysiology of one such lesion, and provides a basis for a rational surgical approach.
周围神经的脂肪性肿瘤虽然罕见，但发生频率足以在诊断和治疗方面引发问题。此外，这些肿瘤的命名在形态学描述上一直存在争议。这些因素导致了对这些局限性神经异常治疗的误解，过去曾导致不必要的根治性神经切除术，从而造成完全的运动和感觉功能缺失。本文回顾了各种类型的脂肪性肿瘤，描述了其中一种病变的形态学和病理生理学，并为合理的手术方法提供了依据。
