The lesions are most commonly located in the abdominal cavity, retroperitoneum, and inguinal areas. Despite their large size, myolipomas are cured by surgical resection.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>PRESENTATION OF CASE:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We present the case of a 79 year-old man who presented with bilateral reducible inguinal hernias (right larger than left). After reducing the right inguinal hernia (RIH), the sensation of a palpable mass was noted in the right iliac fossa. CT scan suggested the content of the right inguinal hernia (RIH) to be small bowel mesentery and no other mass was noted in the right iliac fossa (possibly missed on CT scan).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>DISCUSSION:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A very large 1.8 kg retroperitoneal lipomatous lesion, measuring 22 cm \u00d7 16 cm \u00d7 8 cm, attached to the right spermatic cord was found and excised laparoscopically during a trans-abdominal pre-peritoneal (TAPP) approach to repair the hernias. The lesion was pathologically defined as a myolipoma.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSION:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The laparoscopic TAPP approach to repair inguinal hernias allows the surgeon to inspect the peritoneal cavity, and in this case it was possible to safely dissect and remove a large, lipomatous, retroperitoneal lesion laparoscopically. To the best of our knowledge, there are no reports of local recurrence, metastatic disease, or malignant transformation of myolipomas, and the laparoscopic approach to resect such a lesion has not been reported.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2013.07.023","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,8,6]],"date-time":"2013-08-06T01:33:41Z","timestamp":1375752821000},"page":"904-906","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Laparoscopic resection of a retroperitoneal myolipoma presenting in a right inguinal hernia"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"4","author":[{"given":"Dilip","family":"Dan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nigel","family":"Bascombe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dave","family":"Harnanan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vijay","family":"Naraynsingh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-32-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"245","DOI":"10.1007\/s10029-005-0335-9","article-title":"Lipoma of the cord and round ligament: an overlooked diagnosis?","volume":"9","author":"Nasr","year":"2005","journal-title":"Hernia"},{"key":"R2-32-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"121","DOI":"10.1097\/00000478-199102000-00003","article-title":"Myolipoma of soft tissue","volume":"15","author":"Meis","year":"1991","journal-title":"American Journal of Surgical Pathology"},{"key":"R3-32-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"295","DOI":"10.1016\/S0009-9260(96)80350-3","article-title":"Case report: myolipoma or liposarcoma\u2014a mistaken identity in the retroperitoneum","volume":"51","author":"Liang","year":"1996","journal-title":"Clinical Radiology"},{"key":"R4-32-20260114","first-page":"238","article-title":"Newly described adipocytic lesions","volume":"18","author":"Guillou","year":"2001","journal-title":"Seminars in Diagnostic Pathology"},{"key":"R5-32-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"773","DOI":"10.1007\/s00417-003-0741-6","article-title":"Light and electron microscopic findings in a patient with orbital myolipoma","volume":"241","author":"Nagayama","year":"2003","journal-title":"Graefes Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology"},{"key":"R6-32-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"630","DOI":"10.1007\/s004170050133","article-title":"Myolipoma of the eyelid","volume":"236","author":"Sharara","year":"1998","journal-title":"Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology"},{"key":"R7-32-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"259","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1075-122X.2004.21317.x","article-title":"Myolipoma of the breast: mammographic, sonographic, and pathologic correlation","volume":"10","author":"McGregor","year":"2004","journal-title":"Breast Journal"},{"key":"R8-32-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"184","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2559.1996.d01-504.x","article-title":"Pericardial myolipoma: a tumour presenting as a mediastinal mass and containing oestrogen receptors","volume":"29","author":"Ben-Izhak","year":"1996","journal-title":"Histopathology"},{"key":"R9-32-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"641","DOI":"10.3348\/kjr.2011.12.5.641","article-title":"MRI of a subcutaneous myolipoma in the ankle: a case report","volume":"12","author":"Lee","year":"2011","journal-title":"Korean Journal of Radiology"},{"key":"R10-32-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"441","DOI":"10.1007\/s002920000413","article-title":"Lipomatous tumors of the skin and soft tissue.
