Lipomatosis of peripheral nerves (LPN, also known as fibrolipomatous or lipofibromatous hamartoma of peripheral nerves) is a very rare, benign, intraneural, tumorous lesion that predominantly involves the median nerve but may rarely affect any peripheral nerve. Recently,PIK3CAmutations have been reported in macrodactyly, a rare condition related to LPN, and in other localized lipomatous overgrowth syndromes. In this retrospective study, we report 6 cases of FPN involving the median nerve (4 of them identified among 570 patients with carpal tunnel syndrome who underwent surgical decompression at our center from 2012 to 2022 and two seen in consultation by one of the authors). All cases were diagnosed via biopsy or resection supplemented by MRI. Patients were 4 males and 2 females aged 23 to 60 years (mean 38 years). One patient with bilateral lesions had in addition extensive angiomatosis of the paravertebral region. Histological examination showed an abnormal amount of mature fatty tissue containing disordered fibrous bands, entrapping normal-looking nerve fibers with prominent perineurial and endoneurial fibrosis. Genetic analysis using snapshot assay constructed to detect hotspots mutations inPIK3CArevealed similarPIK3CAmutations (p.H1047R; c.3140A>G) in 5/6 cases (83.3%). Our study represents a further contribution to the literature on LPN and highlights the diagnostic value ofPIK3CAmutation testing as surrogate tool in equivocal cases and in those lesions without associated macrodactyly, especially as the biopsy findings of this lesion are essentially nonspecific.
