Pelvic lipomatosis: the nuclear magnetic resonance appearance and associated vesicoureteral reflux.
We report a case of pelvic lipomatosis with ureteral obstruction and vesicoureteral reflux. In addition to computerized tomography, nuclear magnetic resonance imaging provided definite and graphic proof of the diagnosis. Operative treatment consisted of ureteroileocystostomy.
