Los lipomas son masas bien limitadas y encapsuladas, compuestas por adipocitos. Los de localizacion intratoracica son raros y se situan con mayor frecuencia en la pleura o el mediastino anterior. La tomografia computarizada demuestra el contenido graso y homogeneo de la masa, lo que permite establecer el diagnostico. La presencia de zonas de mayor densidad en la grasa debe llevar a sospechar un liposarcoma. Presentamos un caso de lipoma localizado en el mediastino posterior, con areas solidas en su interior, detectadas con tomografia computarizada, que correspondieron a zonas de necrosis grasa en el estudio histologico.
