Abstract
We report a relatively rare case of renal replacement lipomatosis (RRL) with coexistent xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis (XP), depicting most of the radiological findings RRL and XP has several similarities in terms of clinical background as triggering mechanism is same i.e. chronic calculus disease and inflammation in most of them. Being rare entity diagnosis is usually missed due to lack of experience.
