Acquired: Localized Localized lipodystrophies are defined as a localized loss of subcutaneous fat from small areas or from parts of a limb. There may be single or multiple lesions. It is characterized by depressed areas corresponding to the loss of subcutaneous fat. In some cases, it may be associated with tender, painful nodules in the skin. Usually, it occurs in diabetic patients at the site of insulin injections. In some patients, at loss occurs from areas where pressure is applied

Inherited: Neonatal Progeroid Syndrome (Wiedemann-Rautenstrauch syndrome) Neonatal progeroid syndrome (NPS), also known as Wiedemann- Rautenstrauch Syndrome, is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by accelerated aging and lipodystrophy from birth. Affected children have extreme intrauterine growth retardation, poor postnatal weight gain, and have a characteristic progeroid face (triangular, old-looking face with a beak shaped or pinched nose), pseudohydrocephalus, wide

Inherited: Familial Partial Lipodystrophies, other Types Familial Partial Lipodystrophy- PPAR gamma (Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptor- γ) gene mutations Only about twenty patients with FPL due to heterozygous mutation in PPARG have been reported so far. It is either much less common than FPL, Dunnigan variety or is less recognized likely due to milder phenotype. We recently reported heterozygous mutation (Arg397Cys) of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma
