Overview
Lipoma must be differentiated from liposarcoma, normal adipose tissue, adrenal myelolipoma, angiomyolipoma, and thymolipoma.
Differentiating Lipoma from other Diseases
In general there is little differential for a classic lipoma. The main differential is[1]:
- Liposarcoma
- Normal adipose tissue
In certain locations then other fatty masses should be considered :
- Retroperitoneum
- Chest
- Thymolipoma
