Intraosseous Lipoma of Lamina of the First Thoracic Vertebra

Han Chang, Jong‐Beom Park

Open publisher page 8 citations

Abstract

STUDY DESIGN: A case is reported. OBJECTIVE: To report a case of intraosseous lipoma involving the lamina of the first thoracic vertebra. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Intraosseous lipomas involving the spine rarely have been reported. METHODS: An incidental intraosseous lesion of the lamina of the first thoracic vertebra documented on magnetic resonance imaging was surgically excised and pathologically evaluated. RESULTS: The histologic findings were consistent with those for intraosseous lipomas previously reported in other bones. CONCLUSIONS: The authors present a rare case of an intraosseous lipoma involving the lamina of the first thoracic vertebra.
