Lipoma involving multiple fascial spaces is extremely rare and poses a challenge to surgeons using less invasive procedures. Although blunt dissection using a finger is often used in excisional surgeries as a supplementary maneuver, few cases have been described using the bimanual technique for the removal of these extensive lesions. Herein, the authors present a large lipoma of the oral floor extending to the unilateral submandibular and parapharyngeal spaces, which was excised only via a submandibular approach using the “push–pull down” maneuver, blunt finger dissection of the tumor with counter-pushing on the overlying mucosa to the submandibular direction facilitated tumor separation. The tumor was consequently pulled down and removed without an additional intraoral incision. Based on accurate preoperative examinations, this maneuver, provides a less invasive surgery for well-encapsulated benign tumors involving multiple fascial spaces.
