A Case of Spindle Cell Lipoma on Nasal Dorsum of Nose

Abstract

Spindle cell lipoma is a benign, lipomatous tumor arising most frequently in the subcutaneous on the back of the neck and shoulders in males aged in the third through seventh decade of life. However, we encountered a case of an unusual spindle cell lipoma arising in the subcutaneous and skin layer in the dorsum of nose. A total of two reports of spindle cell lipoma have been found in the nasal and nasal dorsum regions. To our knowledge, this is the first report of spindle cell lipoma in the nasal dorsum.
