Pleural Lipoblastoma: A Case Report
Abstract
- We report a case of pleural lipoblastoma in an 28-months-old female. Clinical presentation was pneumonia
with fever and cough. Plain chest radiographs revealed a well-defined radiolucent mass on left lower thorax
just above the diaphragm. CT scan demonstrated a pleural-based mass of fat density containing streaks of
increased density. The mass was removed by surgery and confirmed as lipoblastoma arised from costal pleura.
