    Benign Soft Tissue Tumors include lipoma, hemangioma, fibromatosis, myxoma, schwannoma, and giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath. Pigmented villonodular synovitis is also listed. The document discusses lipoma in more detail, defining it as a benign tumor composed of mature adipocytes with uniform nuclei identical to normal fat cells, and noting that benign adipocytes have a single large vacuole that pushes the nucleus to the periphery while malignant or immature adipocytes called lipoblasts have a larger, indented nucleus between fat vacuoles.

    Lipom
    • Definition: a tumor
    Benign composed of
    mature adipocytes with uniform nuclei
    identical to the cells of normal adult fat.
    • Benign/Mature adipocytes have cytoplasmic
    lipid in a single large vacuole that pushes the
    nucleus to the periphery of the cell and
    compresses it into a thin crescent.
    • Lipoblasts: Malignant or Immature adipocytes.
    • Larger peripheral or central nucleus indented by one
    or more fat vacuoles so that spikes of chromatin
    project between fatty vacuoles. Usually smaller and
    have smaller vacuoles than mature lipocytes
