“…Some studies have demonstrated a similar incidence of lipomas and Wbrolipomas [18][19][20], whereas others, like the present investigation, observed a higher proportion of lipomas [1,5,7,10,15,21]. According to Fregnani et al [6], the variations in the frequency of lipomas and Wbrolipomas may reXect true geographic and racial diVerences or are mere divergences in diagnostic criteria.…”

This study evaluated the clinical and histopathologic aspects of 41 cases of oral lipomas diagnosed in a Brazilian population. All records from patients diagnosed with oral lipoma between 1970 and 2008 were reviewed. Histological sections were evaluated by light microscopy. There was a predominance of females (2.4:1), with a peak incidence between the sixth and seventh decade. The buccal mucosa was the most aVected site (53.7%), followed by the buccal sulcus (14.6%) and tongue (9.8%). Tumor size ranged from 0.5 to 10 cm and the mean reported duration was 48 months. Histologically, the following variants were identiWed: lipoma (41.5%), Wbrolipoma (34.1%), spindle cell lipoma (9.8%), sialolipoma (9.8%), osteolipoma (2.4%), and chondrolipoma (2.4%). Most tumors were well delimited, irrespective of the variant. Lipomas are rare tumors of the oral cavity. The characterization of new variants, such as sialolipomas, and the identiWcation of histological subtypes in already known variants, such as low-fat and fat-free spindle cell lipomas, highlight the importance for careful microscopic evaluation of these tumors, which might be combined with immunohistochemistry in some cases.

“…Our case was for a 33‐year‐old female, which is the third youngest case reported and well below the reported median age. Our case revealed a male: female ratio of 1.57:1, which is in accordance with the reported male: female ratio ranging from 1.19:1 to 2.75:1 15,35 . Of note, our case reported no significant comorbidities or risk factors for the development of lipomas.…”

“…Although lipomas are common in other regions of the body, OLs represent only 0.27%–1.7% of all oral lesions (4,11), similar to the prevalence observed in the present study. The gender predilection is variable, but a higher prevalence in men, with male:female ratios ranging from 1.19:1 to 2.75:1, was reported (12,13). The higher male:female ratio (2.75:1) was observed in a study performed in the records from the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology in USA (13), which could explain the high prevalence in men.…”

Background: The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to evaluate radiologically, the relation between the distance from the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) to the facial bone crest (FBC), and the facial alveolar bone (FAB) width at maxillary anterior teeth. A further aim was to assess if the CEJ-FBC distance had an impact in the prevalence to find a FAB thickness greater than one mm. Study design: CBCT images were retrospectively obtained from the database of the Oral Surgery Unit of the University of Valencia. The teeth were divided in 3 groups according to the CEJ-FBC distance: Shorter (≤3mm), Middle (>3 ≤4.5 mm) and Larger (>4.5 mm). FAB thickness was measured by two different examiners at 1, 2 and 3 mm apical to the FBC. Normality of means were evaluated by Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and an ANOVA-type linear model was performed. Results: 82 patients were included in the study, with 156 central incisors, 149 lateral incisors and 152 canines analyzed. A significant greater FAB thickness in Shorter (≤3mm CEJ-FBC) than Middle and Larger group was observed in all distances measured apical to the FBC. There was a significant inverse relation between the distance CEJ-FBC and FAB thickness at all distances measured. The prevalence of a FAB thickness equal or greater than one mm was 35.9% of all teeth analyzed from Shorter, 17.4% of Middle and 8.9% of Larger group at 1 mm apical to the FBC.
