“…In 1901 Liebscher was the first to describe a spinal angiolipoma [43]: however, the term angiolipoma was established in 1960 by Howard and Helwig as an anatomopathological entity containing mature fat cells and proliferating vessels [35].…”

“…They are subdivided into two types which should be considered and treated differently: non-infiltrating and infiltrating, the latter extending into the vertebral body [45]. In 1966, GonzalezCrussi [28] described the first case of vertebral ''infiltrating'' angiolipoma and stated that these tumors should be distinguished from angiolipomas described by Howard and Hellwig [35]. Lin and Lin [44] established infiltrating angiolipoma as a separate entity, justifying their decision on differences in clinical course, pathological picture, and prognosis from those of ''plain angiolipomas''.…”

Spinal angiolipomas are benign uncommon neoplasm composed of mature lipocytes admixed with abnormal blood vessels. They account for only 0.04-1.2% of all spinal tumors. We report two cases of lumbar extradural angiolipoma and review previously reported cases. We found 118 cases of spinal epidural angiolipoma (70 females and 48 males; age range 1.5-85 years, mean 44.03) spanning from 1890 to 2006. Prior to diagnosis 40.6% of the patients had weakness of the lower limbs. The interval between the initial symptoms and tumor diagnosis ranged from 1 day to 17 years (mean 20.2 months). Except for four cases diagnosed at autopsy, 109 patients underwent surgery and gross-total resection was performed in 79 cases (72.4%). Spinal angiolipomas are tumors containing angiomatous and lipomatous tissue, predominantly located in the mid-thoracic region. All angiolipomas show iso-or hyperintensity on T1-weighted images and hyperintensity on T2-weighted images and most lesions enhance with gadolinium administration. The treatment for spinal extradural angiolipomas is total surgical resection and no adjuvant therapy should be administered.

“…Angiolipomas are benign lipomatous lesions, which were first defined by Bowen [29] in 1912 and differentiated from lipomas histopathologically by Howard in 1960 [30] . The lipomatous benign lesions are seen as musculoskeletal masses especially in soft tissues and bones [1,2] .…”

We report an extremely rare case of angiolipoma larynx Case report and a review of the world literature concerning angiolipoma are presented. A case of tumour of the larynx in a 72-year-old male who underwent excision by a lateral pharyngotomy approach. Histopathological diagnosis was angiolipoma. 19 cases of angiolipoma have been reported from head and neck region, none from the larynx. To our knowledge this is the first report in the world literature of angiolipoma larynx.
