Case report: lipoma arborescens of the sub-deltoid bursa

J S Dawson et al. Br J Radiol. 1995 Feb.

Abstract

Lipoma arborescens is a rare synovial disorder which principally affects the knee joint. We describe an unusual case of lipoma arborescens arising within the sub-deltoid bursa in association with a rotator cuff tear. Pre-operative diagnosis was made by magnetic resonance imaging.
