Definition: Hemosiderotic fibrolipomatous tumor is an extremely rare, nonencapsulated, fatty lesion with a consistent histologic appearance that was originally considered reactive in nature.

Cytogenetics

- reciprocal translocation between chromosomes 1 and 10, with a further rearrangement involving this derivative chromosome 1 and chromosome 3 (18406878)
