Abstract

Head and neck lipomas in the pediatric population are rarely described in the literature. Two patients who presented to the Hospital for Sick Children with rapidly enlarging head and neck lipomas are presented. Radiographic imaging, including CT and MRI, as well as fine needle aspiration implicated a lipoma as the probable diagnosis. Both patients were treated by surgical excision. The clinical behavior, diagnostic work-up and treatment of these rare lesions are the focus of this study.
