Primary congenital intracranial lipoma with extracranial extension in a pediatric patient: A case report and literature review
This case of rapid lipoma growth in a pediatric patient is atypical, differing from slow-growing, asymptomatic presentations in adults. High-magnification microsurgery and Doppler guidance facilitated safe resection with a positive outcome. This case highlights the need for further research into developmental factors and rapid growth mechanisms in pediatric intracranial lipomas with extracranial components, potentially representing a distinct clinical entity.
