Familial Multiple Lipomatosis

A rare autosomal disorder characterized by numerous encapsulated lipomas on the trunk and extremities. The lipomas are usually not painful but can cause pain when growing. In rare cases, one lipoma can become painful and progress to multiple painful lipomas; it is then referred to as Dercum's Disease Type III

Also Known As:

Adiposis Dolorosa Type III; Dercum's Disease Type III; Familial Multiple Lipomas; Lipoma Dolorosa; Familial Multiple Lipoma; Familial Multiple Lipomatoses; Lipomatoses, Familial Multiple; Lipomatosis, Familial Multiple; Multiple Lipoma, Familial; Multiple Lipomas, Familial
