The rare mediastinal lipoma: a postmortem case report.

Yehia M A H Marreez¹, William Roy, Rouel Roque, Emmett Findlay.

Abstract

Mediastinal lipomas are extremely rare, so there are few reported cases. We report a postmortem case of this rare intrathoracic lipoma in a 79-year old female cadaver. The gross features of the tumor and histopathological findings confirmed the diagnosis of a massive simple benign lipoma. To our knowledge, this is the first case to be reported at such an advanced age and the second postmortem case found during comprehensive review of literature.
