Is There any Link between Madelung Disease and Ischemic Stroke? A Case Report
A 70-year-old man presented to the Emergency Department with left hemiparesis, slurred speech, and elevated blood pressure. A brain computed tomography scan revealed an ischemic lesion in the right frontal and parietal lobes. At clinical examination bilateral pseudo gynecomastia was detected together with the presence of multiple elastic, adipose bulging masses on the neck, trunk, and upper limbs. A type I-II Lanois-Bensaude syndrome was diagnosed. Ultrasonography confirmed their adipose nature. Multiple symmetric lipomatosis, also known as Lanois-Bensaude syndrome or Madelung disease, is a very rare condition with extreme variability in its clinical presentation. The simultaneous occurrence of ischemic stroke and lipomatosis in the same patient might be due to a mitochondrial function impairment, which could lead to abnormal fat tissue distribution and defective cellular energy production, thus resulting in neuronal sufferance and death. The possibility that, in our case, lipomatosis could have represented a further risk factor in promoting the stroke occurrence is discussed. In our opinion, multiple symmetric lipomatosis must be carefully evaluated to improve the patients' quality of life.
