Abstract
Lipomas are benign mesenchymal neoplasms
composed of lobules of well differentiated
adipocytes. These neoplasms are commonly
encountered in dogs and rarely recorded in
domestic species (Moulton, 1990; Aiello, 1998).
Subcutaneous lipoma in mammals often raise
at site of trauma but they are not common in
chicken (Yang and Lee, 1987). In this case
presentation, pathomorphological assessment
of a lipoma in Wattle of a hen is discussed.
