[Adipose tissue hypertrophy after Lipostructure in HIV patient with antiretroviral treatment. Case report and literature review].
HIV-related facial atrophy is a common complication due to antiretroviral treatment. The social handicap due to this lipodystrophy increase the demand of surgical correction. The usual treatment is the Lipostructure described by Coleman. The hypertrophy is one of the complications which can occur after a correction by Lipostructure. This complication is different from the overcorrection by the free time before his appearance. The treatment by liposuction is possible but there is a high risk of recurrence. The best treatment, after the literature review, seems to be the direct excision.
