ABSTRACT
Lipomas are adipose mesenchymal neoplasms, they are relatively uncommon in the oral cavity, representing about 0.5% to 5% of all benign oral tumors1. The clinical presentation is typically as an asymptomatic yellowish mass. The overlying epithelium is intact, and superficial blood vessels are usually evident over the tumour. We report a case with an unusual and atypical presentation of the lipomas in the floor of mouth, which is quite a rare site in the literature even in the oral cavity lipomas.
