Sumario:Renal replacement lipomatosis is a rare condition characterized by fatty tissue proliferation. It has been associated with aging, lithiasis disease, and renal transplantation.

We report a case of a patient followed for endometrial thickening or the diagnosis of renal lipomatosis that was discovered incidentally on an abdominopelvic CT scan.
