# Lipomatous Metaplasia in a Warthin Tumor: A Rare Histopathological Finding

## TL;DR

This paper reports a rare case of a Warthin tumor with lipomatous metaplasia, highlighting its potential to be misdiagnosed as a lipomatous lesion.

## Contribution

The paper contributes a rare histopathological case of lipomatous metaplasia within a Warthin tumor.

## Key findings

- Lipomatous metaplasia in a Warthin tumor can resemble lipomatous lesions.
- This feature is a potential diagnostic pitfall, especially in hypocellular samples.

## Abstract

We present a case of Warthin tumor (WT) exhibiting lipomatous metaplasia. This rare histopathological feature can mimic lipomatous lesions, particularly in hypocellular samples, and should be recognized as a potential diagnostic pitfall. Recognition of this feature is important to avoid diagnostic errors.
