“…The indistinct etiology of chondroid changes in lipomas has been discussed, and most researchers have indicated that they originate from different types of undifferentiated mesenchymal cells ( 2 ). Chondrolipomas occur mostly within the head and neck region and the upper half of the body ( 3 ), including the submandibular region, the tongue, the subcutaneous region of the chest wall, the scapular region, intracranial interhemispheric region, the mandibular region and the infratentorial region. They rarely occur within the lower half of the body ( 4 ).…”

Chondrolipomas, which are lipomas with chondroid metaplasia, are rare benign soft tissue tumors with no relevant epidemiological reports or radiological information. A limited number of lipomas with osteo/chondroid differentiation have been reported in the literature between 1960 and 2008. Moreover, only few studies have described the radiologic findings of chondrolipomas. Herein, we present a case of chrondrolipoma arising from the left supraclavicular region in a 77-year-old female.

“…Most of the cases are diagnosed in patients over the age of 40 and these are more commonly seen in males than females [3][4][5]. Oral lipomas have been reported to occur in a variety of locations including the salivary glands, buccal mucosa, gingiva, lip, tongue and floor of the mouth.…”

Chondrolipoma of the Tongue in a Child: A Case Report

et al. 2015

Chondrolipomas are seen very rare in the oral cavity. They are benign mesenchymal tumors which are characterized by the proliferation of mature adipocytes associated with the deposition of mature cartilaginous tissue. English literatures show that these lesions are usually small (0.5 -2.5 cm), duration of disease before diagnosis ranges from 2 months to 2 years and the peak incidence of lipomas is during the fifth and sixth decade of life. A 16-year-old boy presented with a painless mass on the right lateral border of the tongue since birth in this case report. Intraoral clinical examination revealed a medium hard, multilobuler, irregular mass, consistency measuring approximately 6 × 4 cm in its major diamater. Therefore, the present case is peculiar due to its long duration (approximately 16 years) and its size.

“…Conventionally lipomas are composed of mature adipose tissue, but sometimes they can contain other mesenchymal elements such as fibrous tissue, blood vessels, and, less frequently, cartilage or bone. These variations in composition do not affect treatment nor prognosis [ 1 ].…”
