Abstract (original English)

Osteochondrolipoma is an extremely rare histological variant of lipoma with osseous and chondroid differentiation, which occurs mostly in the head and neck area and the upper half of the body. In this paper, we present a case of osteochondrolipoma, which displayed components of both cartilage and bone in lipoma, located on the right side of the ischium of a 31-year-old male. On thorough review of literature, no such site has been reported to date. Peculiarities of this case and the diagnostic challenges are discussed.

What this study does not prove

  • • This study does not prove SVF is an approved treatment or a replacement for standard care.
  • • Without an adequate control group, treatment effects cannot be separated from other factors.

Evidence level

Early human evidence such as case series or small samples is exploring possible benefits.
