“…Another possible pathogenetic factor is rapid vascular insufficiency because not all of the reported cases had a trauma history. Vascular insufficiency could be the reason for MEAT in connective tissue disease-such as scleroderma, lupus, dermatomyositis, or Ehlers-Danlos syndrome-or vasculitis and vasculopathy (14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20).…”

The concept of mobile tumors was introduced by Shelley and Shelley in 2006. They coined the term abacus tumor. Mobile lipomas have been described in the literature as an example of abacus tumors. This was later questioned by Burgdorf et al., who performed comparative studies in cattle. They suggested the term mobile encapsulated adipose tissue (MEAT) for lipoma-like mobile lesions in cattle and people. We report two more cases of MEAT in adult patients and discuss the literature on this unusual subject.

“…The pathogenesis is thought to be rapidly compromised blood supply, presumably from trauma, in the adipose tissue [1] . Some cases have been reported, which were associated with complications: erythema nodosum [15] , Ehlers-Danlos syndrome [8] , Heerfordt's syndrome [16] , splinter granuloma [17] , systemic sclerosis [14] , lupus erythematosus [18] , and juvenile dermatomyosiits [19] . Local ischemia in skin may be induced by them.…”

Nodular-cystic fat necrosis, which is also called encapsulated fat necrosis, is a mobile subcutaneous nodule and histologically reveals fat necrosis encapsulated by fibrous connective tissue. In Japan, many cases have been reported, and there are some opinions that diabetes mellitus and systemic corticosteroid therapy cause this condition. The author found that out of 147 Japanese patients reported from 1982 up to 2015, 9 had the former and 23 received the latter. Systemic corticosteroid therapy may be responsible for nodular-cystic fat necrosis.
