Resumen

Los lipomas cervicales son lesiones poco frecuentes. Los de locali-zación profunda y la lipomatosis cervical difusa pueden ser clínica-mente mal diagnosticados. Hemos realizado una revisión de lesiones cervicales lipomatosas en nuestro hospital encontrando 20 casos en un período de 15 años (1985-1999). La TC permite hacer el diagnóstico prácticamente en el 100% de los casos, siendo el método de elección para demostrar y caracterizar los tumores lipomatosos. Además aporta datos que ayudan a planificar el abordaje quirúrgico y permite hacer el seguimiento en las lesiones clínicamente estables que no precisan tra-tamiento quirúrgico.

Abstract

Lipomas of the neck are uncommon lesions. Those situated in deep locations and diffuse lipomatosis of the neck can be clinically misdiag-nosed. We reviewed the 20 lipomatous neck lesions treated in our hospital over a 15-year period (1985-1999). Computed tomography was diagnostic in nearly 100% of cases and, thus, is the method of choice for the detection and characterization of lipomatous tumors. It also provides data that aid in planning the surgical approach and enables the follow-up of clinically stable lesions that do not require surgical treatment.
