Abstract

Lipoblastoma is an exceptional, benign, lobulated, mesenchymal neoplasm arising from embryonal adipose tissue cells or lipoblasts or immature adipocytes. In concurrence with diverse adipose tissue neoplasia such as lipoma, lipomatosis, angiolipoma, myolipoma or lipoblastomatosis, lipoblastoma is categorized as a benign, mesenchymal, adipocytic neoplasm. Jaffe described lipoblastoma as an atypical lipoma with cellular constituents simulating embryonic fat or lipoblasts, in 1926. As lipoblastoma arises from embryonic adipose tissue, it is additionally nomenclated as “embryonic lipoma or foetal or embryonal lipoblastoma” [1].
