Lipoblastoma is a rare, encapsulated tumor that originates from the embryonal fat tissue. Intraabdominal lipoblastoma is less commonly encountered, accounting for less than 10% of all Lipoblastomas. These tumours exhibit excellent long-term prognosis and gross total resection remains the mainstay treatment. Here we present a 2 year old girl with extraordinary 1,505 gram abdominal Lipoblastoma who initially presented with a painless abdominal distention. The patient was successfully treated with gross total resection.
