Cystitis Glandularis

Cystitis glandularis, cystica or follicularis has been observed in 75% of the patients with pelvic lipomatosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Abstract Pelvic lipomatosis is a rare disease which may cause obstructive uropathy. It has been reported with cystitis cystica and cystitis glandularis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pelvic lipomatosis is a rare, proliferative disease involving an overgrowth of normal fat in the pelvic retroperitoneal space. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pancreatic Atrophy

This case supports an embryologic histologic explanation for the uneven lipomatosis. [jbsr.be]

It occurs principally with fatty replacement of the pancreas (pancreatic lipomatosis), and the etiology overlaps considerably. [radiopaedia.org]

This “ductal hypothesis” probably coexists and interferes with the “embryologic hypothesis” in cases of uneven lipomatosis. [jbsr.be]

Adiposis Dolorosa

Understanding the pathophysiology and metabolism of lipomatosis in AD may contribute to a better understanding of metabolism in non-lipomatosis obesity. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Lipomatosis may contain excess collagen and multi-nucleated giant (MNG) cells. Case reports suggest metabolic defects in AD. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

BACKGROUND: Adiposis dolorosa (AD) is a syndrome of obese and non-obese individuals whose hallmark is lipomatosis: unencapsulated painful fatty masses in subcutaneous fat. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
