There have been few articles concerning them because of their lack of clinical importance. They cause little concern except from a cosmetic point of view or when they mechanically interfere with normal function because of an unfortunate situation.The etiological factors may be classified as primary or secondary. The secondary type could include the following: (1) Diffuse symmetrical lipomatosis (Fetthals; adenolipomatosis) in which the unencapsulated mass has a predilection for the neck region. These are found in the area rich with... This content is PDF only. To continue reading please click on the PDF icon.
