Abstract

Angiomyxolipoma is a rare subtype of lipoma, is a tumor of mesenchymal origin, and several subtypes have been described that vary according to their location. It is an admixture of fatty tissue admixed with myxoid stroma and blood vessels. Here we report a case of a 43-year-old man presented with complaints of painless swelling in the left scapular region. Patient underwent for local excision which on histopathologic examination revealed poorly encapsulated lesion with an admixture of lobules of adipocytes, clumps of blood vessels of varying sizes and loose fibrous tissue with myxoid change which was consistent with angiomyxolipoma.
