Madelung s disease as a rare cause of obstructive sleep apnea Fonseca VA; Alves C; Marques H; Camacho E; Saraiva APJ Bras Pneumol 2009[Oct]; 35 (10): 1053-6Madelung's disease, or multiple symmetric lipomatosis, is a rare disease, characterized by accumulation of unencapsulated fat, generally located symmetrically around the neck and shoulders. Here, we present the case of a patient with diffuse lipomatosis accompanied by obstructive sleep apnea due to cervical involvement and facial deformity, which made it necessary to use nasal pillows for ventilation. The patient was hospitalized with a diagnosis of pneumonia and required noninvasive ventilation due to severe hypercapnia. A brief review of the literature was made, and we describe and discuss the investigation of this rare clinical case.|Facial Injuries/etiology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Lipomatosis, Multiple Symmetrical/*complications/pathology[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH]|Sleep Apnea, Obstructive/*etiology[MESH] |
