ABSTRACT
Angiolipoma is a benign soft tissue tumor composed of mature adipocytes and small capillaries. Although it can occur in any part of the body, it is rare in the oral cavity, especially in the lips. We report the case of a 47-year-old male who presented with a painless, slow-growing mass on the right lower lip that had gradually increased in size over several months. The initial diagnosis included lipoma, mucocele, and hemangioma. The mass was surgically excised, and the histological examination confirmed the diagnosis of angiolipoma. Angiolipomas involving the lips are rare and can be easily misdiagnosed. Therefore, clinical suspicion, along with appropriate imaging and histological examination, is essential for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate management. The patient had a smooth recovery after surgery and showed no recurrence of the condition during the one-year follow-up examination.
