Abstract
Multiple symmetric lipomatosis (MSL) is a rare disease associated with metabolic disorders and alcoholism. In this report, we describe the clinical outcome and surgical protocol for eight men with Madelung collar who underwent treatment in a craniofacial and plastic surgery facility in Hanoi, Vietnam, between May 2018 and December 2020. We discuss the patients' clinical symptoms, subclinical signs, epidemiology, magnetic resonance imaging, computerized tomography, surgical protocol, complications, and postoperative indicators that we collected and evaluated. Each patient underwent surgery in two stages (i.e., in supine and prone positions). We injected a tumescent solution 10 min before the incision. Two surgeons performed each operation simultaneously. After surgery, we followed the patients for 6-27 months. All of the patients had a history of long-time alcohol abuse and had associated comorbidities that included liver disease, blood disorders, restricted neck movement, and orthopnea. We did not have to open the trachea or transfuse blood during any of the surgical procedures. Postoperatively, all patients were satisfied with their functional results and aesthetic appearance. One patient experienced a recurrence of his MSL. We believe our surgical protocol provides optimal results for patients with MSL and Madelung collar.

Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes 2022; 15:2365-2375. [PMID: 35966829 PMCID: PMC9364939 DOI: 10.2147/dmso.s363836] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2022] [Accepted: 07/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Madelung's disease (MD) is a rare disease characterized by the deposition of unencapsulated fat masses on the face, neck, chest, back and other areas of patients. The aim of the study was to analyze the clinical characteristics, comorbidities and treatment of MD in Chinese populations. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 54 patients who were diagnosed with MD at the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University and Qingdao Municipal Hospital from January 2005 to February 2021 and collected the subjects' demographic information, clinical indicators, location of fat deposits, treatment, complications and prognostic data. RESULTS Among 54 MD patients in the study, only 1 (1.85%) was female, and the subjects had an average age of 56.65 ± 7.93 years. More than 70% of patients had a history of long-term smoking or/and alcohol abuse. In our study, type I accounted for approximately 61.11% of cases according to Donhauser's classification, and almost all patients had neck fat deposition. MD patients often have multiple comorbidities across several systems, such as the endocrine, digestive, circulatory, urinary, and neurological systems. Among these, endocrine system diseases were the most common comorbidities in our study, accounting for 81.48%. Notably, up to 20.37% of cases were complicated with cancer, especially digestive system tumors. More than 70% of the patients received surgical treatment, and nearly 40% experienced postoperative recurrence. CONCLUSION Considering that MD patients often have comorbidities of multiple systems and that a small number of cases are even complicated by cancer, we recommend that clinicians comprehensively assess a patient's condition and complications, advocate that patients quit consuming alcohol and smoking as soon as possible, establish healthy dietary and living habits, and formulate individualized and comprehensive diagnosis and treatment plans.

Abstract
Madelung's disease or multiple symmetric lipomatosis (MSL) is a rare benign disease characterized by abnormal, multiple and symmetric fat depositions in the subcutaneous layer, involving head, neck, back, trunk and also upper and lower limbs. MSL may be related to alcohol abuse or metabolic disorders; it may be both silent or clinically manifest. We describe a case of a 48-yo man with β-thalassemia admitted to medicine department for neck swelling without fever or respiratory symptoms. Patient denied a history of alcoholism and laboratory exam excluded metabolic disorders. Doppler ultrasound, contrast Enhanced-CT and Magnetic Resonance Imaging exams of the neck showed a symmetric, non-encapsulated fat deposition causing extrinsic compression of the right jugular vein without thrombosis. Once excluded the possibility of malignancy, patient's history, clinical, and radiological findings suggest the diagnosis of non-alcohol-related MSL disease. Knowing MSL imaging findings and its degree is crucial to guide towards the right management. Our patient did not require surgical treatment and an US follow-up is needed in order to detect any possible evolution.

Abstract
Madelung Disease (MD) is a syndrome characterized by the accumulation of aberrant symmetric adipose tissue deposits. The etiology of this disease is yet to be elucidated, even though the presence of comorbidities, either genetic or environmental, has been reported. For this reason, establishing an in vitro model for MD is considered crucial to get insights into its physiopathology. We previously established a protocol for isolation and culture of stem cells from diseased tissues. Therefore, we isolated human adipose-derived stem cells (ASC) from MD patients and compared these cells with those isolated from healthy subjects in terms of surface phenotype, growth kinetic, adipogenic differentiation potential, and molecular alterations. Moreover, we evaluated the ability of the MD-ASC secretome to affect healthy ASC. The results reported a difference in the growth kinetic and surface markers of MD-ASC compared to healthy ASC but not in adipogenic differentiation. The most commonly described mitochondrial mutations were not observed. Still, MD-ASC secretome was able to shift the healthy ASC phenotype to an MD phenotype. This work provides evidence of the possibility of exploiting a patient-based in vitro model for better understanding MD pathophysiology, possibly favoring the development of novel target therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple symmetric lipomatosis (MSL) is a rare disease showing chronic progression of multiple, symmetrical, and non-encapsulated subcutaneous lipoma. The cause of the disease remains unknown. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study reported and summarized 13 sporadic cases of Type I MSL patients in terms of histopathology and cellular and molecular biology and assessed the CBLB c.197A>T mutation in the IRS1-PI3K-Akt pathway. RESULTS The clinical data showed that these 13 Type I patients were all male with a mean age of 57.0 ± 6.6 years old and consumed alcohol heavily. The laboratory tests revealed that most of the patients had hyperuricemia, diabetes, hyperinsulinemia, or insulin resistance; however, their blood lipid levels were close to a normal range. The imaging data exhibited lipomas that only occurred subcutaneously but not viscerally, ie, Types Ia (15.4%), Ib (30.8%), and Ic (53.8%). The molecular analyses of adipocytes of isoprenaline stimulated human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (hADSCs) isolated from the adipose tissue lipoma-like masses (ATLLM) demonstrated that these adipocytes did not express UCP-1. The Cbl proto-oncogene B (CBLB), an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase, was associated with insulin resistance and obesity and was mutated (ie, CBLB c.197A>T) in four MSL patients after the whole genome and Sanger sequencing of the blood samples. Furthermore, the CBLB c.197A>T mutation induced hADSC resistance to insulin by inactivation of the IRS-1-PI3K-AKT pathway. CONCLUSION This study analyzed clinical, histopathological, and cellular and molecular biological characterizations of 13 Type I MSL patients and identified the CBLB c.197A>T heterozygous mutation that could be responsible for MSL metabolic dysfunction or even MSL development.
