A 30-year-old woman developed an 5×7cm sized, indurated, ill-defined, subcutaneous mass on the right axilla. Microscopically, the tumor contained broad bands of dense connective tissue with mature adipose tissue scattered throughout the mass, but it did not show encapsulation. The lesion was excised and she showed no evidence of recurrence after 6 months of follow-up.
