Özet
Lipoma is the most common mesenchymal neoplasm in the human body. They may rarely become giant masses due to their asymptomatic nature. Differential diagnosis includes many malignant and benign tumors. Total surgical excision is the preferred treatment modality. The average age of affected patients is fifth decade of life. It is 5-10 times more common in males. In this case report, we report a 66 years old male with a giant back mass with a diameter of 20 cm and diagnosed as lipoma after its removal and histopathological examination, and reviewed the literature.
