Intrascrotal lipoblastoma in a ten year old boy: case report and review of literature / G. Nakib, V. Calcaterra, L. Avolio, M. Guazzotti, I. Goruppi, A. Viglio, G. Pelizzo. - In: RARE TUMORS. - ISSN 2036-3605. - 5:1(2013), pp. 41-43. [10.4081/rt.2013.e11]
Abstract:
Lipoblastoma is a rare benign soft tissue tumor encountered almost exclusively in infancy and early childhood. The location of tumors varies, but most occur in the extremities, trunk, head and neck. Less frequently, lipoblastomas have been reported in the mediastinum, the retroperitoneum and the inguinal region. Only 7 cases of lipoblastoma in the scrotum have been reported so far in the English literature, with none of the patients older than 8. We report an intrascrotal lipoblastoma in a 10 year-old boy. The differential diagnosis is discussed with reference to the literature.
