[Echographic aspects of superficial lipoma].
The author analyzes the sonographic patterns of 14 superficial benign lipomas. Echogenicity ranges from hypoechogenicity with distal sound enhancement to isoechogenicity with the possibility of hyperechoic areas. 50% of the lipomas of this series were ill-defined from the surrounding fatty soft-tissues.
