Popis: A diffuse fatty infiltration of all the intrapelvic organs (bladder, rectum, sigmoid, colon) was present in a 67-year old-man. This led to the typical topographical and functional changes in the organs affected. Treatment has been very controversial. Surgical measures such as exeresis of the fat tissue with or without the intrapelvic organs affected by the abnormal fat deposition with subsequent drainage (colostomy/ileum conduit) were carried out. Conservative treatment with or without temporary cortisone administration was recommended. Pelvic lipomatosis is diagnosed radiologically. If there is no unequivocal restriction in the function of the affected organs, treatment should remain conservative.
