Five cases of an unusual pseudoangiomatous variant of spindle cell lipoma are presented. In keeping with more typical cases, these lesions occurred principally in the shoulder and neck regions of adult males. The lesions all had the features of typical spindle cell lipoma but, in addition, exhibited irregular and branching spaces with villiform connective tissue projections, giving a striking angiomatoid appearance. Although the pathogenesis is uncertain, this unusual histological pattern seems to be the result of myxoid degeneration and may lead to a mistaken diagnosis of a true vascular tumour or other non-lipomatous spindle cell lesion.
