Lipomatous Tumors of the Stomach: CT Findings and Differential Diagnosis

F Ferrozzi, G Tognini, Davide Bova, Paolo Pavone

Abstract

This article reviews the computed tomography imaging features of a variety of gastric tumors containing fatty tissue. Lipoma, angiolipoma, liposarcoma, and teratoma are described. Differential diagnosis includes primary and reactive lipomatosis, carcinoma engulfing the perivisceral fat thus mimicking differentiated liposarcoma, and mesenchymal gastric and peritoneal neoplasms.
