Berardinelli-Seip congenital lipodystrophy: an autosomal recessive disorder with rare association of duodenocolonic polyps
Abstract
Berardinelli-Seip congenital lipodystrophy (BSCL) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a nearly complete absence of adipose tissue and generalized muscular appearance. This condition is associated with various dermatological and systemic manifestations. We report a 5-year-old boy, with clinical and metabolic presentation resembling BSCL and unusual features, such as diabetes detected at an early age and multiple duodenal and colonic polyps.
