title: Axillary giant lipoma: a case report.
abstract: Lipoma are the most frequent mesenchymal soft tissue tumours but rarely present huge sizes in their cutaneous localization. Some cases of so-called "giant lipomas" have been reported in the literature and here is presented a giant lipoma of the axillary area which is, to our best knowledge, the second report of such a giant lipoma in this localization.
