Case series of pediatric lipoblastoma: Varied presentations not to be missed

Lipoblastoma is a rare benign mesenchymal tumor of infancy and childhood. The most common presentation is a painless subcutaneous soft tissue mass, but there are other unique clinical presentations that are important to recognize. The differential is broad and includes sarcoma, vascular tumor, myofibroma, and other fibromatoses. It is most often encountered on the trunk and extremities of children and symptoms vary depending on localization. Occasionally children present with compression of adjacent organs by a lipoblastoma.
