Eurorad Case: Diffuse Uterine Lipoleiomyomatosis

Eurorad (ESR teaching cases)Mar 18

This is a teaching case presentation, not a new research study, so no new findings or numbers are reported. It illustrates the imaging features of diffuse uterine lipoleiomyomatosis, a rare benign tumor consisting of smooth muscle and mature fat.

  • Eurorad teaching case featuring a rare benign uterine neoplasm.
  • Key for trainees: recognizing the characteristic fat within a uterine mass on CT/MRI can differentiate it from more concerning lesions.
  • As a single teaching case, there are no statistical findings, sample sizes, or reported limitations to summarize—its value is educational and pattern-based.
