From the Department of Hand Surgery, St. John’s Hospital, Howden Road West, Livingston, EH54 6PP, UK

Correspondence: Mr W. Anderson, Dept. of Plastic Surgery, St. John's Hospital, Howden Road West, Livingston, EH54 6PP, UK. Tel.: 01506-419666; Fax: 01506-460592

Lipomas are extremely common benign soft tissue tumours that are usually subcutaneous and asymptomatic. Occasionally, lipomas can occur in deeper soft tissue planes and when adjacent to the neck of the radius they can cause compression of the posterior interosseous nerve. Five such cases are described. An anterior approach to excision of the lipoma is recommended.
