Carotid sheath lipoma: first case report in the English literature

Lipomas are the most commonly encountered benign mesenchymal tumour, arising in any location where fat is normally present. Lipomas in the head and neck are rare in all age groups. Cases of vascular sheath lipomas in the femoral region have only been reported in adults. In children, vascular sheath...

description Lipomas are the most commonly encountered benign mesenchymal tumour, arising in any location where fat is normally present. Lipomas in the head and neck are rare in all age groups. Cases of vascular sheath lipomas in the femoral region have only been reported in adults. In children, vascular sheath lipomas have not been described to date. We report the first case of a carotid sheath lipoma in a seven-year-old boy. He had a non-tender soft mass with ill defined borders occupying the left upper part of the neck. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a mass at the bifurcation of the left common carotid artery without involving the same. The mass was hyperintense on T1 and T2 weighted sequences, suggestive of a lipoma. The lipoma was enucleated after incising the carotid sheath, safeguarding its contents. Histopathology confirmed it as a lipoma.
