Abstract

\n\tThe incidence of uterine fatty tumors varies from 0.03-0.2%. The clinical manifestations do not usually differ greatly to those caused by leiomyomas except that they usually affect postmenopausal women.Diagnosis is accomplished after histopathological analysis. A 50 year old post menopausal lady presented with complaints of postmenopausal irregular vaginal bleeding since 1 year. She was P12 L11. On examination, patient was obese, per speculum exam showed hypertrophied cervix with bleeding through os. Bimanual exam was suggestive of a retroverted bulky uterus. Ultrasound: 5.3x6.4x5.8 cm intramural fibroid, endometrium was not seen. Endometrial biopsy was inconclusive. She underwent total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salphingo-opherectomy. Histopathological report was suggestive of uterine lipoma.
