Abstract excerpt
We present an individual with a generalized and infantile onset lipodystrophy who later developed hypertriglyceridemia, pancreatitis, refractory diabetes, irregular menses and renal failure. She showed the hallmark features of a congenital, generalized lipodystrophy (CGL). Sequencing PPARG identified two pathogenic mutations; c.413_416delAATG; p.Glu138ValfsX168 and c.490C>T; p.R164W. The phenotype and presence of...
