This report aims to present 5 cases of intraoral lipoma with clinical findings, surgical treatment and histopathological features. Provisional diagnosis of minor salivary gland neoplasm, fibroma and lipoma was made for all of the cases according to clinical examination. Excisional biopsy was performed with blunt dissection. Lobular, yellowish, encapsulated masses were obtained from the patients and excised specimens were sent to pathology laboratory for histopathological analysis. After histopathological examination, all cases were diagnosed with simple lipoma. Successful healing of the oral mucosa was observed in postoperative period. The most important feature of these tumours is that they are asymptomatic. Differential diagnosis is important as it includes malign tumours and some genetic diseases that may be related to tumour.

Introduction: Peripheral ossifying fibroma belongs to the spectrum of reactive gingival hyperplasias. Although it is believed to occur as a gingival overgrowth in response to local irritants, the pathogenesis of this lesion is still a controversy. Aim: This case report highlights the presence of a rare combination of coexistence of peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) and fibrolipoma. Case report: A case of POF in a 65-year-old female has been presented with its detailed clinical, radiographic, and histopathological findings along with the diagnostic challenges associated with such lesions and the management approaches for the same. Conclusion: Establishing an early diagnosis becomes imperative to rule out the potential for malignant transformation. This case presents a rare combination of coexistence of fibrolipoma in buccal mucosa which in itself is a rare finding.

“…Lipomas of the mouth are benign tumors; they grow slowly, do not infiltrate other tissues, do not ulcerate, and are painless. They are relatively rare in the mouth and the maxilla-facial region 3 , 4 . The case above fits into these criteria and other reports in the literature; it is atypical in its size (5.0 cm).…”
