Lipodystrophy can be divided into the following types: [5]: 495–7 Congenital lipodystrophy syndromes Congenital generalized lipodystrophy (Berardinelli-Seip syndrome) Familial partial lipodystrophy; Marfanoid–progeroid–lipodystrophy syndrome; Chronic atypical neutrophilic dermatosis with lipodystrophy and elevated temperature syndrome [6]
In other clinical reports studying 3 patients diagnosed with AGL accompanied by hypoleptinemia, uncontrolled diabetes, and hypertriglyceridemia who were treated with metreleptin for 12–168 weeks, patients had great reduction in HbA1c, from 10.9% to 5.8%, and had normalized serum triglycerides with a mean decline of 90%.
About 22% of patients developed membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) after a median of about 8 years following the onset of lipodystrophy. Compared with patients without renal disease, those with MPGN had earlier age of onset of lipodystrophy (12.6 ± 10.3 yr vs 7.7 ± 4.4 yr, respectively; p < 0.001) and a higher prevalence of C3 ...
Familial partial lipodystrophy, also known as Köbberling–Dunnigan syndrome, [2] is a rare genetic metabolic condition characterized by the loss of subcutaneous fat. [ 3 ] : 495 FPL also refers to a rare metabolic condition in which there is a loss of subcutaneous fat in the arms, legs and lower torso.
Congenital generalized lipodystrophy (also known as Berardinelli–Seip lipodystrophy) is an extremely rare autosomal recessive condition, characterized by an extreme scarcity of fat in the subcutaneous tissues. [2] It is a type of lipodystrophy disorder where the magnitude of fat loss determines the severity of metabolic complications. [3]
Familial Partial Lipodystrophy, Dunnigan Type Autosomal dominant is the manner of inheritance of this condition Dunnigan-type familial partial lipodystrophy , also known as FPLD Type II and abbreviated as ( FPLD2 ), is a rare monogenic form of insulin resistance characterized by loss of subcutaneous fat from the extremities , trunk , and ...

Lipohypertrophy [1] is a lump under the skin caused by accumulation of extra fat at the site of many subcutaneous injections of insulin.It may be unsightly, mildly painful, and may change the timing or completeness of insulin action.
