We report a case of lipodystrophia centrifugalis abdominalis infantilis in 24 month male. At age 18
months, his mother noticed a fairly well-defined depression of skin in the both inguinal and axillary
area, which gradually spread centrifugally to the lower portion of abdomen and total inguinal and
axillary region. The laboratory findings were unremarkable. Biopsy showed absense of subcutaneous
fat in the affected area. |
