In this online, self-learning activity: Lipodystrophy syndromes are a group of disorders characterized by a deficiency of adipose tissue estimated to affect 1.3-4.7 people per million worldwide. Lipodystrophy impairs adipose tissue function, promoting systemic insulin resistance and a maldistribution of lipids and damage to multiple organ systems. Complications may include pancreatitis, liver and kidney abnormalities, diabetes, neuromusculoskeletal complications, and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Patients are also susceptible to depression and lower self-image.
