Symptomatic angiolipomas have been noted to appear with the initiation of antiretroviral therapy in HIV patients. This may be associated with fat redistribution that has been observed with protease inhibitors.
Extracutaneous angiolipomas may also occur. They may be found in the kidneys in association with tuberous sclerosis. They account for less than 1% of spinal tumors, in which case they may be associated with spina bifida.
