A Case of Spindle Cell Lipoma Arising in the Deep Neck Region
Spindle cell lipoma is a subtype of lipoma, and is a relatively rare tumor of the head and neck region. In this report, we describe a case in which the tumor was initially suspected as a schwannoma, because aspiration cytology revealed spindle-shaped cells and MRI revealed no evidence of a lipoma.
