Overview
Lipoma may be classified into different subtypes depending on the classification system. They may be classified according to the anatomical location, the related tissues or other characteristics.
Classification
Lipomas can be classified according to their anatomical locations into:[1]
- Dermal
- Subcutaneous
- Subfascial
Another suggested classification is according to the related structure:
- Muscles-related lipoma
- Nerve-related lipoma
- Bone-related lipoma
- Synovium-related lipoma
World health organization (WHO) classification system classified lipomatous tumors into the following subtypes:[2]
- Lipoma
- Lipomatosis
- Lipomatosis of nerve
- Lipoblastoma/lipoblastomatosis
- Angiolipoma
- Myolipoma of soft tissue
- Chondroid lipoma
- Spindle-cell lipoma/pleomorphic lipoma
- Hibernoma
Weiss and Goldblum classified Lipomatous tumors into the following subtypes. This classification system has shown more clinical utility.[3]
- Lipoma which may be classified as superficial or deep, single or multiple
- Variants of lipoma including:
- Angiolipoma
- Myolipoma
- Chondroid lipoma
- Lipoblastoma
- Lpindle-cell/pleomorphic lipoma
- Lipomatous tumors including:
- Intramuscular lipoma
- Intermuscular lipoma
- Lipomatosis of nerve
- Lipoma of the tendon sheath and joint
- Infiltrating lipomas including
- Diffuse lipomatosis
- Symmetric lipomatosis
- Adiposis dolorosa
- Hibernoma
