This article reviews the clinicopathologic features and differential diagno
ses of 7 newly described adipocytic lesions: chondroid lipoma, myolipoma, l
ipomatous hemangiopericytoma, sclerotic lipoma, fibrohistiocytic lipoma, he
mosiderotic fibrohistiocytic lipomatous lesion, and spindle cell liposarcom
a. Two recently described variants of spindle cell/pleomorphic lipoma are a
lso presented: the pseudoangiomatous variant and the dendritic fibromyxolip
oma, which corresponds in all likelihood to a peculiar myxoid variant of sp
indle cell lipoma. Copyright (C) 2001 by W.B. Saunders Company.
