Lipomas are benign, slow growing, soft tissue mesenchymal tumors, usually involving the trunk and proximal parts of extremities and occasionally found within the oral cavity in locations such as the buccal mucosa, tongue, floor of mouth, palate, gingiva, lips and retromolar area. Their presentation may vary, as in size, shape, colour, consistency and depth. They are of different histological variants, commonest of them being the Simple Classical lipoma and the Fibrolipoma, and the treatment is complete surgical excision. A case series is presented, showcasing the varieties of lipomas involving different sites within the oral cavity. The importance of histopathological identification of this pathology is important to differentiate it from other look-alike entities affecting similar locations, so as formulate and institute the correct treatment.

Background: Tumours in maxillofacial region can be classified in benign or malignant variety, they may also be of odontogenic and non-odontogenic origin. Surgical Intervention in childhood leads to many complications. The aim of this study was to determine the type and frequency of tumours in paediatric population in patients reported to Khyber College of Dentistry Peshawar. Methods. The admission record of total 80 child patients having maxillofacial tumours were reviewed over a period of 4 years and 5 months i.e., from January 2013 to May 2017 in the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery, Khyber College of Dentistry, Peshawar. Results: Out of 80 patients, 44 were males and 36 females. Mean age was 12.5±4.6. Most common age of presentation was 18 years. Most common tumour was vascular malformation followed by giant cell granuloma. Majority of the tumours were of benign nature. Conclusion: Vascular malformation and giant cell granuloma are the most common maxillofacial tumours in children in this region. Timely diagnosis is the key to avoid morbidity and mortality.

“…[ 4 ] Although oral lipomas are well-circumscribed soft tissue lesions, rarely they give a radiographic impression of an intraosseous neoplasm within the mandibular canal. [ 14 ] Lipomas may show radiographic features rarely manifesting as radiolucency. [ 10 ] The gross specimen of lipoma when placed in a pot with water usually floats in it.…”

Lipoma is the most common tumor of mesenchymal tissues of body, but its occurrence in oral cavity is infrequent. Buccal mucosa is the most common intraoral site of lipoma followed by tongue, floor of the mouth, and buccal vestibule. The involvement of mucogingival junction is rare. We present a unique case report of oral lipoma occurring on mandibular mucogingival junction with review of literature which has emphasis on differential diagnosis.
