82-year-old man who noticed new “lump” on his leg. Axial CT depicts well-defined fat density mass within his left vastus lateralis muscle, with few very thin internal soft tissue septations (arrow). Finding is consistent with benign intramuscular lipoma. Incidentally, within posterior musculature of right thigh another smaller fat density mass (arrowhead) with internal stranding is present, probably due to interdigitating muscle fibers through lipoma.
