Zusammenfassung: | Congenital infiltrating lipomatosis of the face (CIL-F) is a benign, congenital disorder of the adipose tissue that results in facial asymmetry and particularly presents during childhood.

This report describes a rare case of CIL-F presenting with temporomandibular joint findings, together with a literature review. |
