Lipoma is slow growing tumors and often occurs under the skin on the neck, shoulders, arms, back, abdomen and thighs. However, occasionally lipoma may be present in deep location or originate within muscle. Lipoma affected only 1% of population, and commonly found in adults and is higher in man than in women. The most common benign mesenchymal tumors composed of fat cell of adult type, diffused or encapsulated type. Surgical removal is indicated when causing trouble as site, size, appearance and presence of pain. The study was carried on 35 male patients presented by lipoma around shoulder girdle operated in Kobry El-Kobba Military Medical Campus. The patients were divided into four groups, G1:25 patients with primary subcutaneous lipoma, G2: 8 patient with subscapular lipoma, G3: 1 patient with giant submascular left shoulder lipoma, and G4: 1 patient with giant subscapular lipoma “diagnosed before operation” including complete surgical excision was done under general anesthesia in all the patients without any recurrence.
