Introduction: The term lipoblastoma was introduced by Jaffe in 1926. It is a benign mesenchymal neoplasm of uncommon embryonic adipose tissue, made up of adipocytes in different stages of maturation, 90% of cases occurring in patients younger than 3 years. Case report: The case of a 2-year-old patient with a tumor in the upper third of the right thigh is described, with poor adherence to medical surveillance, performing definitive treatment at 6 years of age with a histopathological diagnosis of lipoblastoma. Discussion: Lipoblastoma occurs most frequently in extremities and trunk, progressive growth; magnetic resonance is the most sensitive radiological study to make diagnosis, and treatment is surgical. Conclusion: Lipoblastoma is a benign neoplasm of soft, mesenchymal parts, which occurs predominantly in childhood; there is a risk of recurrence in both the localized and the diffuse form, consequently surveillance is desirable for 5 years after resection. Our patient is without recurrence and with good quality of life.

Lipoblastomas are rare benign mesenchymal tumors that arise from embryonal fat cells.They are usually discovered in infants and children under 3 years of age, and mostly occur in the trunk (from 10 to 60%, depending on the study) and extremities (from 40 to 45%), while head and neck localizations are rare, with only five cases described to date.We report on three cases of lipoblastomas in infants younger than 4 years, with unusual localizations: one intra-abdominal, discovered during a laparotomy for an intussusception; one pelvic, misdiagnosed as an ovarian mass; and one gluteal with a pelvic extension.All children underwent magnetic resonance imaging as preoperative workup. All tumors were completely resected with free surgical margins and ultrasonographic follow-up was uneventful for all patients.
