Infiltrative Angiomyxolipoma of the Neck: A Rare Case Report

Angiomyxolipoma is an exceptionally rare variant of lipoma characterized by mature adipose tissue admixed with myxoid stroma and vascular elements. Herein, we report a rare case of infiltrative angiomyxolipoma in the neck region of a 55-year-old male. The swelling gradually increased over 18 months and was managed with surgical excision. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis. The patient remains recurrence-free at 6 months. This report aims to highlight the diagnostic challenges and the importance of complete excision in managing such rare lipomatous tumors.

Abstract

Angiomyxolipoma is an exceptionally rare variant of lipoma characterized by mature adipose tissue admixed with myxoid stroma and vascular elements. Herein, we report a rare case of infiltrative angiomyxolipoma in the neck region of a 55-year-old male. The swelling gradually increased over 18 months and was managed with surgical excision. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis. The patient remains recurrence-free at 6 months. This report aims to highlight the diagnostic challenges and the importance of complete excision in managing such rare lipomatous tumors.
