Lipodystrophia centrifugalis abdominalis infantilis: a case report.
We describe a typical case of lipodystrophia centrifugalis abdominalis infantilis. This rare disorder is almost exclusively seen in Japanese children. The patient, a 3-year-old girl of Chinese ancestry, had a depressed area of skin in the right groin which gradually spread across the abdomen. The lesion had a distinctive, slightly erythematous, raised border and regional lymphadenopathy was present.
