Spindle Cell Lipoma Occurring in the Submandibular Space: Fifth Case Reported along with a Concise Review of the Literature
Spindle cell lipoma (SCL) is an uncommon histological variant of lipoma that accounts for 1.5% of all adipose tumors. It rarely occurs in the oral cavity. The most common sites of involvement are the buccal mucosa, tongue, lip, alveolar mucosa, gingiva, and palate. Submandibular space is a very rare...

Submandibular space is a very rare site of occurrence for SCL. When occurs in this site, SCL mainly involves the 4th–7th decade with a female predominance.
