Multiple symmetrical lipomatosis is a rare disorder characterized by progressive anomalous deposition of fat typically located in the neck and shoulders. Magnetic resonance imaging allows exact definition of the abnormal fatty tissue and the involvement of deep structures. We describe the MR findings in two patients with the typical fat deposition in the neck and upper thorax which also presented unusual location of abnormal fat. One patient had laryngeal involvement with fatty infiltration of true and false cords. The other patient had inguinal and scrotal large deposition of fat.
多发性对称性脂肪瘤病是一种罕见的疾病，其特征为脂肪进行性异常沉积，通常位于颈部和肩部。磁共振成像能够准确界定异常脂肪组织以及深部结构的受累情况。我们描述了两名患者的磁共振成像表现，这两名患者颈部和上胸部有典型的脂肪沉积，同时异常脂肪的位置也不寻常。一名患者喉部受累，真假声带均有脂肪浸润。另一名患者腹股沟和阴囊有大量脂肪沉积。
