title: Frontalis-associated lipoma of the forehead.
abstract: We describe a deeply placed lipoma of the forehead. This fatty tumor is usually misdiagnosed initially as an epidermal inclusion cyst. Preoperative recognition allows its proper depth within the tissue, that is, within or just below the frontalis muscle, to be anticipated.
