title: Protease inhibitor-induced lipodystrophy.
abstract: The development of lipodystrophy as evidenced by central obesity, "moon facies," and a "buffalo hump" is a classical feature of Cushing's disease. Recently an association of "lipodystrophy" with the use of protease inhibitors has been reported. We describe a patient with lipodystrophy secondary to protease inhibitor therapy for HIV infection.
