Uterine lipoma

Specialties Ob/Gyn

Published

Have any of you heard of or had a patient with a lipoma in the uterus? The reason I ask is I had a hysterectomy last month. They originally thought I had a fibroid, but pathology stated it was a fatty tumor called a lipomatous. From what I have been reading it appears to be rare.
