Rarely they can develop in the anterior and posterior aspect of neck, infratemporal fascia, palmar aspect of hand, eyelids, forehead over mandibular region and parotid gland. The diffuse variety and pedunculated lipomas are also rare .Differential diagnosis of these rare forms of lipomas are made, however CT allows a specific diagnosis to be made in all cases of rare locations of Lipomas.
