We present a unique case of inflammatory pseudotumour involving gluteal subcutaneous tissue with the sparing of superficial fat and report its contrast-enhanced CT, F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/CT and pathological findings. Although rare, inflammatory pseudotumours have been reported with a diverse spectrum of locations; however, the involvement of the subcutaneous tissue overlying the gluteal muscles with sparing of the most superficial fat has not been reported.
