Abstract
Intracranial lipomas are rare lesions. Intracranial lipoma associated with a subcutaneous lipoma is extremely rare. Various abnormalities have been described in association with intracranial lipoma, mainly vascular in nature. We report the case of an association of intra and extracranial lipoma in a 1-month-old child. Surgical treatment and histology are described. Comparisons between imaging findings and observations in the operating room are discussed.
