Clin Imaging. 2001 Nov-Dec;25(6):428-31. doi: 10.1016/s0899-7071(01)00337-0.

Abstract

Intraosseous lipoma is the rarest benign primary bone tumor. We report a case of juxtaarticular intraosseous lipoma in the humeral head of a 50-year-old man. Roentgenographic, computed tomographic (CT), magnetic resonance (MR), scintigraphic, and histologic findings of this case are presented.
