A lipoma is a non-cancerous tumour that is made up of fat cells. It slowly grows under the skin in the subcutaneous tissue. A person may have a single lipoma or may have many lipomas. They are very common.
Lipomas - Pathophysiology. 1  Lipomas are common benign mesenchymal tumors. 2  In the GI tract, lipomas present as submucosal fatty tumors. 3  Duodenal lipomas are mostly small but may become pedunculated with obstruction of the lumen. 4  Colonic lipomas are usually discovered on endoscopy. Gentle palpation with a biopsy forceps reveals the soft nature of the submucosal mass. A biopsy specimen of the mucosa may reveal underlying fat, the so-called naked fat sign. As with lipomas in other locations, colonic lipomas may cause pain with obstruction or intussusception. As noted above, a fatty protrusion of preperitoneal fat termed a lipoma of the spermatic cord is a common finding on groin exploration for hernia repair.
