"Painless, symmetric soft tissue masses of the shoulders, upper arms, thighs, and neck, resulting in a pseudoathletic appearance, mimicking the body type of an athlete. Masses may compress aero-digestive structures resulting in dysphasia, dyspnoea, or may limit neck movements 8. Blood lipid screen is usually normal 7."
"Treatment centres around surgical removal, including liposuction, lipectomy or injection lipolysis. Lesion removal is primarily for aesthetic reasons, although occasionally secondary aerodigestive compression mandates intervention. Recurrence is frequently observed. Abstinence from alcohol is advised if there is a relevant history. Spontaneous resolution is not seen 7."
