Breast lipoma is the most common benign tumor on the body surface. It can occur in any structure with adipose tissue, but is most common on the body surface and in the breast. It mostly occurs in obese female patients, and the age of onset is mostly between 30 and 50 years old. The symptoms of this disease are mainly manifested in:

Lipomas often occur on the shoulders, back, buttocks and inner thighs, and are also common on the head. Lipomas located in the subcutaneous tissue vary in size, most of which are oblate or lobed with clear boundaries. If the boundaries are unclear, beware of the possibility of malignant lipomas. The tumor is soft and elastic (note the difference from larger cysts), and some may have a false sense of fluctuation. The tumor is not adhered to the epidermis, the skin surface is completely normal, and the base is relatively wide. During the examination, if you press the base of the lipoma tightly with your hand, you can see the lobed shape. The skin may appear "orange peel". Tumors develop very slowly, most of them have no serious adverse effects on the body, and very few of them become malignant.

In addition, there is another type of multiple round or oval nodular lipomas, which are commonly found subcutaneously on the limbs, waist, and abdomen. The size and number of the tumor are uncertain. It is slightly harder than ordinary lipomas and painful when pressed, so it is called painful lipoma or multiple lipomas.

The main treatment for breast lipoma is surgical excision. However, the surgery should be thorough; if there is any residue, it will inevitably cause recurrence. The resected tissue should be sent for pathological examination to avoid missed diagnosis due to the combination of other tumors.
