Fat Necrosis

Acute pancreatitis can result in fat necrosis, typically occurring in the peripancreatic region within weeks to months, and it generally appears as a low attenuation collection, with minimal heterogeneity. There are no specific imaging features that can diagnose retroperitoneal fat necrosis which may imitate other entities including certain malignancies, which may lead to invasive studies for diagnosis. Herein, we present a case of extensive retroperitoneal fat necrosis beyond the peripancreatic region that developed 10 days after an episode of acute pancreatitis.

History Of

Pulse granuloma is a rare, foreign body inflammatory reaction that occurs mainly in the oral cavity. It is exceedingly rare elsewhere, with only isolated cases described in the literature. We report the case of a 79-year-old woman with a history of normocalcemic hyperparathyroidism who presented to our hospital with a painful 4-cm lump in the upper quadrants—upper outer quadrant of her left breast. The clinical and radiological (BIRADS-5) findings were indicative of a malignant lesion. However, core needle biopsy revealed features simulating hyaline ring granuloma (pulse granuloma-like). A definitive diagnosis of lipomembranous fat necrosis was made by identifying its characteristic histomorphology. Histopathological study is essential to establish an exact diagnosis since clinical and imaging features may mimic breast carcinoma. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a hyaline ring granuloma-like in the breast, which may represent a peculiar form of degenerative change of lipomembranous fat necrosis.
