These benign tumors are more common in males, typically occurring in the early adult years and are often familial 2 .

Angiolipomas are uncommon benign masses of the breast which are rarely described in the male breast. They do not have a typical mammographic appearance and can present with concerning features such as microcalcifications or irregular borders. Ultrasound is helpful in evaluating these masses most commonly appearing as oval, circumscribed, and hyperechoic. Clinical, radiological, and pathological information needs to be carefully evaluated as angiolipomas can be confused with malignant pathology. Three cases of angiolipomas of the male breast are reported in this study with mammographic, sonographic, and pathologic correlation.

Gastric angiolipomas (GA) are rare benign tumors that can present with gastrointestinal bleeding and anemia. We describe a 73-year-old woman who presented with a 3-day history of fatiguability, epigastric pain and melena. A computed tomography scan revealed a hypodense lesion, measuring 6 × 6 × 5 cm, along the upper part of the stomach. An upper endoscopy revealed a large polypoid lesion, measuring 8 × 6 cm, between the cardia and body of the stomach. Multiple biopsy specimens were taken, and a histopathological examination showed an acute erosive helicobacter-associated reactive gastritis but no definitive atypia. A linear endoscopic ultrasound revealed a large, homogenous, hyperechoic lesion, consistent with a lipoma, in the body of the stomach. A fine needle aspiration was negative for malignancy. A laparoscopy was offered, and a wedge resection was performed. A histopathological examination revealed a well-circumscribed, encapsulated lipomatous tumor in the gastric submucosa with focal mucosal ulceration. The patient had an uneventful postoperative recovery and her hemoglobin level subsequently returned to normal. Overall, clinicians may be unfamiliar with GA because patients may present with signs and symptoms that can be confused with other gastrointestinal conditions. Physicians should be aware of the characteristic histopathological features to distinguish GA from other diseases of the gastrointestinal tract that may share similar clinical or radiologic features.
