Lipidized fibrous histiocytoma (FH) is a rare type of FH. The present study aimed to describe the clinical and pathological features of lipidized FH. A total of eight patients diagnosed with lipidized FH were retrospectively reviewed in the present study. The cohort included three male and five female patients (male to female ratio, 1.7:1) with a mean age of 48 years (range, 38-62 years). In total, four tumors were located on the buttock, three on the lower leg and one on the forearm. Histological, lipidized FH showed a wide spectrum. Some cases included prominent stromal hyalinization and hyalinized vessels with scant lipid-laden histiocytes. Other cases exhibited the prominent lipid-laden histiocytes and scant stromal hyalinization. Overall, lipidized FH must be differentiated from other benign and malignant tumors, taking into account the therapeutic and prognostic differences between these different entities.
