Case of a Giant Necrotic Fibrolipoma inducing Early Sepsis
Main Article Content
Abstract
Very few cases of giant fibrolipomas are listed in literature and there are none upon our review that list abscess and necrosis within the mass. Fibrolipomas represent a rare benign skin growth that typically are small in size (1). This is a rare case in which an ulcerated and infected mass caused early sepsis.
