What is Lipoma?
Lipomas are slowly growing lump of non-cancerous fat cells that form between the skin and underlying muscle layer.
- They are usually soft and smooth to touch and can vary in size.
- They are usually painless and tend to move easily when pressed.
- They can form anywhere in the body but most commonly occur on the neck, shoulders, back, abdomen, arms, and thighs.
- They are usually harmless but can cause discomfort or pain depending on their size and location.
Different Types of Lipoma
There are four main types of lipomas:
Subcutaneous Lipomas
Subcutaneous Lipomas are the most common type of lipoma. They form just under the skin, and are usually soft and rubbery to the touch. Subcutaneous lipomas can occur anywhere on the body, but are most commonly found on the trunk, shoulders, neck, and arms.
Intramuscular Lipomas
Intramuscular Lipomas form within the muscles, and are often firm and Painful to the touch. Intramuscular lipomas are most commonly found in the thigh or shoulder region.
Intermuscular Lipomas
Intermuscular Lipomas form between the muscles, and can be either soft or hard to the touch. Intermuscular lipomas are most commonly found in the forearm or calf region.
Visceral Lipomas
Visceral Lipomas form inside the body cavities, including around organs such as the heart, kidneys, or liver. Visceral lipomas are typically not palpable from the outside of the body.
Causes of Lipoma
The exact cause of lipomas is never established. However, some factors that may contribute to the development of lipomas include:
- Genetics: Lipomas can develop due to genetic tendency resulting in formation of multiple lipomas all over body.
- Injury: Although rare, but sometimes trauma or injury can trigger the growth of lipomas.
- Conditions: Certain congenital conditions like Adiposis Dolorosa or Madelung's disease result in the formation of multiple lipomas. Certain rare conditions like Gardner's syndrome or Cowden syndrome also increase the risk for lipoma formation.
Diagnosis of Lipomas
Lipomas can be diagnosed in almost all cases with physical and clinical examination. However additional tests may be recommended in certain cases which include:
Imaging Studies
Ultrasound, MRI, or CT scans can provide detailed images of the lump and its location within the body.
FNAC or Biopsy
Rarely, a small tissue sample or few fat cells may be taken and examined under a microscope to confirm the diagnosis.
Best Treatment Options for Lipoma
Observation
As lipomas are usually harmless, simple observation and no intervention is all required for small, non-growing lipomas.
Liposuction for Lipomas
Liposuction plays a significant role in the management of lipomas but has its own indications and limitations. It is most effective for lipomas which are very superficial, small and soft in consistency.
Advantages:
- The main advantage of liposuction is minimally invasive procedure resulting in rapid recovery and better cosmetic outcomes in aesthetically sensitive areas like face or neck.
Limitations:
- The major limitation of this procedure is its non-suitability for deep lipomas, large lipomas or lipomas near blood vessels or nerves.
- Sometimes, liposuction may result in incomplete removal of lipomas resulting in recurrence.
Pinch Technique for Lipomas
This is one of the best treatment options for the treatment of lipomas. This technique can be performed in almost every case of lipomas and has least complication rates.
The procedure involves use of highly specialized instruments to elevate the lipoma from underlying tissues. A sharp tool is then introduced to cut around base of lipoma and remove it from underlying tissues. The wound is then allowed to heal on its own.
This technique is not used for very large and deep lipomas.
Laser Procedure for Lipomas
Laser therapy has not gained much popularity in the treatment of lipomas. This is because of incomplete destruction of lipomas resulting in recurrence of lipomas.
Laser therapy works by delivering focused light energy that is absorbed by the fat cells within the lipoma. This absorption generates heat, which leads to thermal damage and subsequent breakdown of the fat cells. However, hard lipomas and large lipomas may not completely break down resulting in recurrences.
The effectiveness of laser therapy for lipomas can vary depending on the size, location, and characteristics of the lipoma. Small, superficial lipomas may respond well to laser treatment, whereas larger or deeper lipomas may require alternative or adjunctive treatments.
Steroid Injections into Lipomas
Direct instillation of steroids into the lipomas can sometimes shrink smaller lipomas. However, this technique is less commonly used due to multiple sessions, incomplete removal of lipomas and higher recurrences.
They are not considered a definitive cure and may need to be repeated periodically for sustained benefit.
