title: Radiologic case study. Benign intraosseous lipoma.
abstract: Intraosseous lipomas are uncommon lesions of bone most often diagnosed incidentally. They typically manifest a classic radiographic appearance, but CT or MRI may be useful in diagnosing lesions that are atypical or incompletely defined radiographically and avoid an unnecessary biopsy.
