Abstract:
The authors report two cases of pelvic lipomatosis associated with glandular cystitis. This is a rare disease with variable and nonspecific clinical features. Complementary investigations useful for the diagnosis of pelvic lipomatosis are CT and especially MRI, intravenous urography and biopsies. The clinical features, radiological findings and therapeutic approach are discussed in the light of a review of the literature.
