| Abstract | Intramuscular lipomas are considered a rare type of benign lipomas. They are usually located deeper and are less palpable than subcutaneous lipomas. A painful presentation with no palpable mass will make clinical diagnosis difficult; in these cases, further imaging should be considered. Only a small number of cases of intramuscular lipomas present with pain; these are located in the supraspinatus and deltoid muscles. To the authors' knowledge, there have been no previous reports of painful intramuscular lipomas involving the infraspinatus muscle. This article describes a case of intramuscular lipoma uniquely located in the infraspinatus muscle and presenting with shoulder pain. A 49-year-old woman presented with 2 months of left shoulder pain. There was no history of preceding trauma. Pain was aggravated by lying on the left shoulder and by the hand behind the back similar to Crass position. On the physical examination, her shoulder joint range of motion was slightly decreased. Simple radiography showed no significant abnormality, but ultrasonography revealed a hyperechogenic mass within the infraspinatus muscle. There was focal tenderness over the mass, but definite palpation of the mass was not possible. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a well-circumscribed, homogeneous lesion measuring 43 × 28 × 16 mm within the infraspinatus muscle, leading to a diagnosis of intramuscular lipoma. Her pain was not improved with medication, suprascapular nerve block, and steroid injections. Finally, surgical intervention was done and intramuscular lipoma was confirmed by specimen. After excision, her shoulder pain was improved and resolved. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
