Adipocytic tumours fall into the grouping soft tissue lesions and includes things that are very common (e.g. lipoma) and everything from benign to malignant.
Overview
This grouping includes a number of tumours, which can be divided based on their behaviour into benign, intermediate and malignant.
Benign
Benign adipocytic tumours:[1]
- Lipoma.
- Angiolipoma.
- Myolipoma.
- Pleomorphic lipoma/spindle cell lipoma.
- Lipomatosis.
- Lipomatosis of nerve.
- Lipoblastoma.
- Extrarenal angiomyolipoma.
- Extra-adrenal myelolipoma.
- Hibernoma.
Intermediate
Intermediate adipocytic tumours:[1]
- Atypical lipomatous tumour.
Malignant
Malignant adipocytic tumours:[1]
- Dedifferentiated liposarcoma.
- Myxoid liposarcoma.
- Pleomorphic liposarcoma.
- Mixed-type liposarcoma.
- Liposarcoma NOS.
Detail section
Normal mature fat
Microscopic
Features:
- Adipocytes of approximately equal size.
- Not vascular.
- No nuclear hyperchromasia.
Notes:
- May have nuclear pseudoinclusions (Lockhern cell).[2]
- There is some suggestion this is not benign.[3]
IHC
- S-100 +ve.
Lipoblastoma
General
- Rare paediatric tumour.[4]
Usual presentation:[4]
- Painless neck mass.
Microscopic
Features:
- Nests of cells in the dermis with abundant pale cytoplasm - vaguely resemble adipocytes.
- Smaller than mature adipocytes.

Images:
Lipoblastoma like tumor
Lipoblastoma like tumor in 26 yo woman, tumor of pelvis. A. Lobulated appearance at low power. B. Cytologically bland lipoblasts with a myxoid stroma. C. Numerous thin-walled branching blood vessels. D. Loose collagenous stroma. The morphologic features, combined with molecular findings of negative DDI T3 gene rearrangement and lack of MDM2 amplification permit the diagnosis.
Lipoma
Main article: Lipoma
Pleomorphic lipoma
Main article: Pleomorphic lipoma
Spindle cell lipoma
Main article: Spindle cell lipoma
Hibernoma
Main article: Hibernoma
Atypical lipomatous tumour
General
- Atypical lipomatous tumour is a term used to save people with a (curable) peripheral liposarcoma from getting denied life insurance.
Microscopic
Features:[7]
- Large adipocytes.
- Atypical lipoblasts - focal, scattered:
- Nuclear hyperchromasia.
- +/-Multinucleated.
Liposarcoma
Main article: Liposarcoma
Angiolipoma
General
- May be syndromic - typically autosomal recessive.[8]
- Can be seen in the context of Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome.[9]
- Painful skin lesion.
Microscopic
Features:
- Adipose tissue.
- Small blood vessels (clustered).
