Massive labial lipomatous hypertrophy in familial partial lipodystrophy seen on computed tomographic angiography

Massive labial lipomatous hypertrophy in familial partial lipodystrophy seen on computed tomographic angiography

We present a 28-year-old female with a rare familial partial lipodystrophy. Originally presenting at the age of 14, she began experiencing hypertrophy of the fat in the mons pubis and labia majora regions. By the age of 24 she had disfiguring hypertrophy of these areas with severe fatty overgrowth,...
