Abstract
|
|
|
|
Lipomatous tumors are the most common mesenchymal tumor. But, pure lipoma of the uterus is very rare and only few cases are reported in international literatures. These tumors usually develop in postmenopausal women and symptoms are similar to leiomyoma. We report a case of a pure uterine lipoma in 64-years-old woman presenting with palpable pelvic mass and voiding difficulty in which a preoperative diagnosis was made by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), then pathologically confirmed after the operation.
