Abstract: Renal lipomas are among the rearest of renal tumors. They probably originate from fat cells within renal capsule or parenchyma. The tumors are confined within renal capsule, in contrast to the perirenal lipomas, which are extracapsular. We recently encountered a case of renal lipoma with bladder stone and diabetes mellitus in 61 years old male patient.
