[Madelung's cervicodorsal adipose hypertrophy (the Launois-Bensaude syndrome)].
Based on an experience (that we believe may be very low in any Clinic) of three cases of cervicodorsal fatty hypertrophy (Launois-Bensaude syndrome) in one case with relapse of the disease, we performed complex anterior dissection of the region, with access of both vascular bundles of the neck and with subsequent surgical removal of the left hypertrophic maxillary salivary gland, followed in a second step (3 months after the primary operation) by the dissection of the dorsal fatty tumours. The aesthetic and functional results were excellent. In the postoperative step, the patient follows a radiation therapy at a dose for anti-inflammatory purpose and steroid therapy.
