title: [Subfascial lipoma of the forehead].
abstract: Three patients with subfascial lipoma of the forehead are presented. These deeply placed lipomas are seen in up to fifty percent of the lipomas of the scalp. A characteristic feature is the intact skin line pattern over the tumour. Surgical treatment involves incision of the aponeurosis of the M. occipitofrontalis.
