Chondroid lipomas are rare, benign lipomatous tumors that occur most frequently in adults during the fourth decade of life. While a female predominance was observed in the initial series of 20 cases described in 1993, the subsequent 49 reported cases do not support a strong gender predilection. We report a case of a chondroid lipoma presenting in a 9-year-old female as a painless, enlarging, left gluteal mass. This is the second case to be reported in the first decade of life and the fourth pediatric case reported in the literature (age < 21). We review the imaging and pathology findings as well as present a comprehensive review of the current literature.
