Lipoblastoma of the neck.

Lipoblastoma and lipoblastomatosis are benign tumours arising from embryonal fat cells. These rare tumours essentially occur in infancy and early childhood. The males are affected more than females often in the ratio of 3:1. These tumours usually arise in extremities. The involvement of neck is rare with only 10 cases reported so far in English literature. We herein report lipoblastoma of the neck in a 3 year old girl.
