Intramuscular lipomas are a variant of benign lipomas that emerge inside skeletal muscle fibres at different locations and present a high recurrence rate, when not properly treated. We report a case of an oral intramuscular lipoma in 61 years old female patient that recurred 10 years after the first surgery. The authors discuss the need for a more aggressive surgical approach and highlight the importance of long-term follow-up.Descriptors: Lipoma; Mouth Neoplasms; Mouth.
