A 7 year-old male Maltese dog was referred to Seoul National University Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital with a recurrent mass in the right scapular region. The patient had no pains associated with the mass. On aspiration cytology, the neoplastic mass is composed of clusters of mature adipocytes with large lipid vacuoles, intermixed with frequent microcapillary vessels which is characteristic of lipoma. At surgery, the mass was infiltrated into the surrounding muscles and therefore the complete resection of the mass was difficult. Histologically, the mass was diagnosed as infiltrative lipoma. The patient has no recurrent signs 8 months after surgery.
