We report on a young patient with a growing retroauricular benign fat tissue tumour after juvenile fat grafting for dural sealing of a placed ventriculoperitoneal shunt. The clinical images indicates fat tissue rather than a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak due to potential shunt malfunction suspected on plain radiography. Human adipose tissue is a source of stem cells that can replicate rather than undergo necrosis, in particular when transplanted during development.
