Аннотация

INTRODUCTION: Lipomas are very common benign lumps that could be encountered in any part of the body but with limited proportion being present in the head and neck region.

CASE SUMMARY: In this article, three different cases of symptomatic cervical lipomas were illustrated, with their different diagnostic as well as therapeutic approaches and will be discussed in light of medical literature.

DISCUSSION: These cervical tumors tend to grow slowly giving variable signs that include dysphagia, dyspnea, dysphonia due to the mass effect of surrounding structures or can be present as simple as a cosmetic concern. Clinicians must bear in mind the malignant transformation of lipomas, which can be challenging to diagnose. With this article, authors will try to highlight the importance of maintaining a good communication between surgeons, pathologists and radiologists as an essential part of the medical management.
