#000000;\">Introduction<\/span><\/h2><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Lipedema was first named in 1940 in the medical literature by Allen and Hines [1].<\/span><\/h4><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The disease is now fully recognized and listed in the WHO International Classification of Diseases (ICD) with its own code (E88.xx) [20].<\/span><\/h4><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Today, the register in medical databases is long when searching for lipedema.<\/span><\/h4><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The \u201cDeutsche Gesellschaft f\u00fcr Phlebologie\u201d (German Society for Phlebology) has even developed its own guidelines on the subject. [8].<\/span><\/h4><h4><em><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The causes of the disease have not yet been fully explored.<\/span><\/em><\/h4><ul><li><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\">To summarise, it is assumed that the female hormone estrogen, due to increased production of growth factors, leads to an increase and enlargement of fat cells [29, 30]. The large increase in fat cells leads to a lack of oxygen in the tissue, so that some of the fat cells die [31]. This in turn leads to chronic inflammation, which in turn leads to tissue damage.<\/span><\/h4><\/li><li><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> In addition, there is a higher permeability of the vessel wall, which allows more lymph to pass through the tissue, which can no longer be evacuated by the lymphatic system that has remained intact (called insufficiency due to the large volume of lymph to be evacuated).<\/span><\/h4><\/li><\/ul><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\">&gt; This leads to the typical feeling of pressure and tension felt by patients.<\/span><\/h4><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\">&gt; In addition, due to the increased sensitivity of the pain receptors, the tissue changes and causes spontaneous pain, which patients often complain about.<\/span><\/h4><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\">&gt; There is also a tendency for haematomas induced by a high fragility of the capillary vessels [35].<\/span><\/h4><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em>It is assumed that the prevalence in the female population is 8-17% [11, 18, 23]<\/em>. For France alone, this corresponds to a total of about 5 million women affected. The disease affects men only very rarely.<\/span><\/h4><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\">And is associated in most cases with hormonal imbalance. Currently, there are only a few individual reports on this subject [4, 10].<\/span><\/h4>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-f6458f4 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"f6458f4\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-77ca32b\" data-id=\"77ca32b\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-af8db33 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"af8db33\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Symptoms<\/span><\/h2><h4><em><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Very often, it is a coincidence that leads to the diagnosis of lipedema.<\/span><\/em><\/h4><ul><li><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Patients recognize their symptoms, for example, through television reports and comments from those around them about the strange appearance of their legs.<\/span><\/h4><\/li><li><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> Although the disease has been known for 80 years, knowledge about lipedema is still very underdeveloped in many places.<\/span><\/h4><\/li><li><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> Even in countries such as France, Germany, Spain or Belgium, there are only a few specialists dedicated to the subject. <\/span><i><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The main symptom is pain [33].<\/span><\/i><\/h4><\/li><li><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> Pain from pressure, touch, spontaneous, tension or movement can occur simultaneously or independently of each other.<\/span><\/h4><\/li><li><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> The tendency to non-traumatic hematomas persists [5, 28].<\/span><\/h4><\/li><li><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> The physical transformation of the arms and legs also promotes stigmatization of patients.<\/span><\/h4><\/li><li><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> It appears symmetrically and bilaterally.<\/span><\/h4><\/li><li><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> Normally, the feet and hands are not affected.<\/span><\/h4><\/li><li><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> Initially, there is no dimpling of the Achilles heel [10]. During the course of the disease, the legs develop into a post with a clear demarcation at the wrists and ankles. A pronounced fat sleeve may appear at these places (photo 1) as well as small fat deposits typical of the malleolus [10,13]. Very often, a fatty area below the knee develops.<\/span><\/h4><\/li><li><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> At a later stage, the altered morphology and weight gain in the legs can lead to deformity of the lower limb joints and arthrosis (photo 2) [39].<\/span><\/h4><\/li><li><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> At an early stage, there is an increase and concentration of fat in the arms.<\/span><\/h4><\/li><li><h4><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> Later, there may be very pronounced deposits in the elbow and forearm, with the exception of a triangular area at the wrist on the inside.<\/span><\/h4><\/li><\/ul><h4><i><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The stage of the disease course is determined by the clinical appearance.<\/span><\/i><\/h4><h4><i><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Three stages are defined.
