Traumatic herniation of buccal pad of fat (traumatic pseudolipoma). A review.
Since the term traumatic pseudolipoma of the buccal mucosa was originally propounded to describe a traumatic herniation of the buccal fat pad, five additional cases have been reported. The evidence from these cases, together with the occurrence of similar lesions of the buttocks and anterior abdominal wall, is presented, and the suggestion is made that there is now sufficient reason to believe that this condition is a clinical entity for which the name traumatic pseudolipoma would appear to be justified.
