MR imaging of a parosteal lipoma.
A case of a parosteal lipoma of the thigh is presented. Very little is known of the enhancement features of this tumor. In this case, mild enhancement of tissue in the region of the pedicle between reactive cortical bone hyperostosis and the lipomatous mass corresponded to fibrous tissue that outlined the hyperostotic reactive bone.
