description Lipoblastoma is a relatively rare benign tumor. It derives from embryonic white fat cells. It almost exclusively affects children less than 3 years of age. We report a case of lipoblastoma of the left thigh detected in an older child (11 years) and a literature review. Diagnosis was based on histology while surgical treatment was based on total resection of the mass. The postoperative course was simple with a follow-up period of 9 months.
