Abstract

Lipomas of the uterus are rare and cervical involvement is another rare entity. Approximately 200 cases have been reported in the literature and the incidence ranges between 0.03% to 0.2%. The lesion has lately been discussed interestingly due to its diagnostic confusion with sarcomas on radiographic examination and also due to their disputed histogenesis. We report a case of 36 years old woman presenting with non-specific lower abdominal pain and vaginal discharge who underwent hysterectomy for abnormal pap smear result and an ultrasound diagnosis of a large cyst in the posterior lip of the cervix. Histopathology revealed intramural lipofibroma of the cervix.
