[Lipoatrophic diabetes. Report of a case (author's transl)]
Abstract
Lipoatrophic diabetes is characterized by: complete lack of subcutaneous fattissue (generalized lipodystrophy), insulin resistant diabetes mellitus, hepatosplenomegaly, excessive hyperthyroidism, elevated basal metabolic note without hyperthyroidism. Recently, "cystic" alterations in the bone have been described as a possible further characteristic. The case of a young woman, now aged 21, who has had generalized lipodystrophy for 17 years and overt diabetes mellitus for 6 years is reported.
