PET/CT and MRI of chondroid lipoma of the deltoid muscle.
[liposarcoma]
Chondroid
lipoma
is
an
uncommon
benign
tumor
of
mesenchymal
origin
characterized
by
the
presence
of
adipose
tissue
and
chondroid
matrix
.
Its
imaging
features
have
been
reported
with
radiography
,
ultrasonography
,
CT
,
and
MRI
.
Because
this
lesion
may
be
mistaken
histologically
for
myxoid
liposarcoma
and
myxoid
chondrosarcoma
,
it
is
of
value
,
through
this
presentation
,
to
raise
the
awareness
of
this
benign
tumor
,
which
may
demonstrate
prominent
18
F-FDG
avidity
on
PET
/
CT
imaging
.
The
authors
present
a
case
of
a
52
-
year
-old
male
patient
with
a
6
-
month
history
of
painless
chondroid
lipoma
of
the
left
shoulder
.
