“…Ewing (8) believes that it is due to a peculiar formation of lipoids in the cells of a fibroma which are undcr the influence of a loctil and general metabolic disorder. The frequency of xanthoma in the Iibsencc of lipemia, together with tlic high frequency of lipcmia in the abseiice of xaiithomu, has promptccl Wilc and Eckstein (15,16) to the conclusion that the knowledge concerning the ultimate cause of the xanthomatous state is still incomplete, although in a later article they suggest that the nature of lipids in xanthoma is more dependent on the activity of the neighboring tissue than on the nature of blood lipids. Bloch (17) associates hormone activity with santhomas aiid believes that tlie underlying factor is produced by a disturbance of the mcclianism regulating lipid metabolism.…”

Tumors of fatty tissue in the breast, including lipoma, fat necrosis, and xanthoma, although unusual, arc ncvcrtheless important and should be recognized.

Of approximately 3,000 breast tumors collected in this laboratory, only 58 cases could be classified as fatty tissue tumors (Table I).
