Lipoma Malignant

Malignant lipoma is a malignant neoplasm of adipose tissue cells that develops from a primary lipoma, which was initially benign.

Lipomas are neoplasms of fat cells (lipoblasts). The origin of liposarcoma cells is from pre-astrocytes and they tend to originate from cells other than lipoblasts and also from other location i.e. tissues produce abnormal lipids that develop into tumors. Refers to atypical tumors.

One of the features is rapid growth. Liposarcoma metastasizes quite early. Metastasis is observed in 80% of patients. Metastases are most often found in the lungs, liver, bones and brain. As a result, metastatic damage can be lymphogenous and hematogenous-distal in nature, depending on the stage of the process. Like other malignant tumors, lipomatous cancer often spreads through the lymphatic and bloodstream. Elements that accumulate in the body can cause painful sensations and pain when palpated.
