[Lipedema]
Abstract
An overall view of the clinical findings in lipedema is given and of its treatment. Lipedema is shown to be a distinct illness, and not just a disturbance of the distribution pattern of subcutaneous fatty tissue. The diagnosis is based on an accurate history and specific criteria on clinical examination and palpation.
