The Value of Magnetic Resonances Imaging in Localized Lipoatrophy

Journal Title: Bezmiâlem Science - Year 2019, Vol 7, Issue 3

Abstract

Localized lipoatrophy usually presents as isolated or multiple, atrophic, depressed areas which are commonly found in the proximal part of extremities. We report a case with idiopathic localized lipoatrophy and want to emphasize the role of magnetic resonance imaging in the evaluation of atrophic lesions.
