Rosa Parks and the Montgomery Bus Boycott. 1  Rosa Parks rode at the front of a Montgomery, Alabama, bus on the day the Supreme Court's ban on segregation of the city's buses took effect. A year earlier, she had been arrested for refusing to give up her seat on a bus.
A lipoma is a mass or lump that is composed of adipocytes or fat cells. Lipoma is a very common, noncancerous tumor that grows slowly. Oftentimes, they build up beneath our skin, specifically in the subcutaneous layer. This is the layer that is found between the skin and the muscle layer. Lipomas can advance in size and numerous growths can occur.
Abstract. Lipomas are common soft tissue neoplasms but are rarely found in the parotid gland. This report is of a 58-year-old man who had a 3.0 x 2.5 cm soft mass in the right parotid gland. At operation, the main trunk of the facial nerve was identified and a superficial parotidectomy was undertaken. This tumour was histologically diagnosed as a lipoma.
