An intra- and extravascular lipoma is one example of an important incidental finding. Intravascular lipomas are rare benign vascular tumors that are typically asymptomatic. They are most commonly found in the inferior vena cava but have also been recorded in the superior vena cava, brachiocephalic vein, subclavian vein, internal jugular vein, external jugular vein, and common femoral vein. Here, we presented the case of a 64-year-old female patient with an incidentally discovered intra- and extravascular lipoma affecting the right subclavian and brachiocephalic veins. While benign, intravascular lipoma on imaging can resemble a malignant tumor such as leiomyosarcoma or thrombus. As a result, appropriate identification and classification of this imaging finding is crucial for avoiding an exorbitant and futile workup.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0044-1788553","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,17]],"date-time":"2024-07-17T23:52:55Z","timestamp":1721260375000},"page":"184-187","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["The Fatty Dilemma: A Rare Instance of Extra- and Intravascular Lipoma of the Brachiocephalic Vein"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"35","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-6816-6138","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Roja","family":"Hiregouja Eranna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiodiagnosis, Continental Hospitals, Hyderabad, Telangana, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Suhasini Devi","family":"Pokanati","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiodiagnosis, Continental Hospitals, Hyderabad, Telangana, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"B.","family":"Rajkumar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiodiagnosis, Continental Hospitals, Hyderabad, Telangana, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,17]]},"reference":[{"issue":"02","key":"ref1","first-page":"20150072","article-title":"Intravascular lipoma of the renal vein","volume":"1","author":"Z Doyle","year":"2015","journal-title":"BJR Case Rep"},{"issue":"02","key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"423","DOI":"10.2214\/ajr.158.2.1729801","article-title":"Localized fat collection adjacent to the intrahepatic portion of the inferior vena cava: a normal variant on CT","volume":"158","author":"H Miyake","year":"1992","journal-title":"Am J Roentgenol"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"107142","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2022.107142","article-title":"Giant lipoma in superior vena cava: a case report and literature review","volume":"95","author":"T W Soetisna","year":"2022","journal-title":"Int J Surg Case Rep"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"37","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ejvsextra.2006.08.003","article-title":"A case of intra and extra-vascular lipoma of the subclavian vein","volume":"13","author":"A Lomeo","year":"2007","journal-title":"EJVES Extra"},{"issue":"01","key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"139","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jamcollsurg.2007.10.015","article-title":"Intravascular lipoma of the right innominate vein in a trauma patient","volume":"207","author":"F O Moore","year":"2008","journal-title":"J Am Coll Surg"},{"issue":"06","key":"ref6","first-page":"W21-2","article-title":"Femoral sheath lipoma causing venous obstruction syndrome","volume":"92","author":"A Day","year":"2010","journal-title":"Ann R Coll Surg Engl"},{"issue":"01","key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"99","DOI":"10.1148\/radiol.2241011113","article-title":"Imaging of fatty tumors: distinction of lipoma and well-differentiated liposarcoma","volume":"224","author":"M J Kransdorf","year":"2002","journal-title":"Radiology"},{"issue":"03","key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"733","DOI":"10.2214\/ajr.182.3.1820733","article-title":"Lipomas, lipoma variants, and well-differentiated liposarcomas (atypical lipomas): results of MRI evaluations of 126 consecutive fatty masses","volume":"182","author":"C M Gaskin","year":"2004","journal-title":"Am J Roentgenol"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"535.e11","DOI":"10.1016\/j.avsg.2020.09.052","article-title":"Surgical resection of a symptomatic superior vena cava lipoma: a case report and literature review","volume":"71","author":"N Sundaram","year":"2021","journal-title":"Ann Vasc Surg"}],"container-title":["Indian Journal of Radiology and Imaging"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/s-0044-1788553.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,17]],"date-time":"2024-12-17T23:50:17Z","timestamp":1734479417000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/s-0044-1788553"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,17]]},"references-count":9,"journal-issue":{"issue":"01","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,17]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2025,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/s-0044-1788553","archive":["Portico","CLOCKSS"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0971-3026","1998-3808"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0971-3026","type":"print"},{"value":"1998-3808","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,17]]}}}
