Fibrolipoma is a rare type of lipoma that mostly forms in the oral cavity, such as the buccal mucosa, lips, tongue, palate, buccal vestibule, mouth floor, and retromolar area. They can also be found in extraoral sites such as the esophagus, pharynx, colon, trachea, larynx, etc.
It is a histological variant of the conventional lipoma and mainly forms in the buccal mucosa causing functional and cosmetic issues. Though these lumps are benign, they can be locally aggressive and difficult to manage.

Some people may even mistake a cancerous lipoma for a fibrolipoma if it is not diagnosed accurately. This will be seriously dangerous for your health. That’s why it is always recommended to see a doctor and get the lump diagnosed by a specialist.
If a fibrolipoma is only a cosmetic concern and the condition is asymptomatic, its treatment won’t be covered by the health insurance company. The treatment is only covered when the fibrolipoma exhibits symptoms and causes functional problems to the affected organ. In this scenario, the treatment will be covered by insurance, and you can get proper treatment without worrying about the expense.

Though fewer cases have been reported of a fibrolipoma occurring on the back, it is a possibility. Fibrous tissues are present everywhere in the body. So, due to any reason, these tissues can accumulate with adipose tissues and form a fibrolipoma.
No, a fibrolipoma is not cancerous and is usually harmless. But it is essential to get the lump evaluated to rule out the possibility of the lump being cancerous (liposarcoma), as the signs are similar in the earlier stages.
Lipomas are benign lumps composed of mature adipose tissues. However, they rarely arise in the oral cavity. Fibrolipomas are a variant of lipomas that mainly form in the oral cavity. They are composed of fibrous tissues.
A fibrolipoma can be removed through laser surgery, liposuction, or excision. The best method of fibrolipoma removal is chosen after diagnosing the lump and accurately identifying its size, location, and depth.
It may not be possible to prevent a fibrolipoma from developing or growing. However, you can try some things to keep yourself healthy, such as adopting a healthy lifestyle, avoiding minor and recurrent injuries, and seeking treatment as soon as you notice the lump.
