We describe four intramuscular lipoma in the deltoides muscle, in four patients (two woman and two men), 62 years old. Two of the tumors were localizated in the right side and two in the left side. The tumor size was between 5 and 8 centimeters, causing pain and funtional disability of the shoulder. Three of the four patients were treated by surgical extirpation of the tumors. 18 months after surgery, none of the tumors have recurred and all patiens showed a total functional recovery.
