Lipodystrophy is a term that refers to a group of disorders in which our body fails to produce fat (total fat loss) or abnormally accumulates fat. It can be both congenital or acquired & partial or generalised. This condition is usually manifested with other metabolic abnormalities normally related with Diabetes, PCOS, hypertriglyceridemia. Lipodystrophy are of many types but when present in generalised congenital form, it is presented very severely and mostly inherited in autosomal recessive manner. If presented in partial form, it can be inherited in an autosomal dominant manner too. Exome Sequencing can help in identification of mutated genes responsible for this heterogeneous condition.
