Lipoma of the septum pellucidum: case report.
Intracranial lipomas are relatively rare maldevelopmental lesions that most characteristically occur in the corpus callosum. Although their occurrence in many other locations has been described, no report can be found of lipomas occurring in the septum pellucidum. A case is presented to document the occurrence of a lipoma of the septum pellucidum and to describe the magnetic resonance image appearance of an intracranial lipoma.
