Nasopharyngeal Lipoma: A Rare Presentation of a Common Lesion.
Lipomas are common slow-growing benign tumors composed of mature adipose tissue. They can grow in any location where fat is present. They are well encapsulated and are generally of little clinical concern. Lipomas are typically located in the subcutaneous fat of the neck and trunk. The presence of a lipoma in the nasopharynx is rare. These lesions may produce clinical symptoms or be found incidentally. Here, we present the case of a 34-year-old male who was found to have an incidental pharyngeal lipoma following a nasopharyngoscopy for unrelated tympanostomy tube placement. This case illustrates a rare presentation of an otherwise common lesion.
