Unusual digital localization of Angiolipoma
Angiolipoma is a benign adypocytic soft tissue tumor composed of mature adipose tissue and small vascular proliferations. We report the case of a 20-year-old female patient with a rare angiolipoma localized on the 3rd finger, whose diagnosis was confirmed on excisional biopsy. The tumor typically occurs in adolescents and young adults, and rarely in patients over 50. Angiolipoma often manifests as a painful, subcutaneous nodule. Due to the rarity of angiolipomas, and their similarity to lipomas, positive diagnosis is virtually impossible without a final histological study. The density of blood vessels relative to fat composition defines the spectrum of angiolipomas
