Lipoedema and Obesity Misclassification: A Phenotype Based Approach to Cardiometabolic Risk Beyond Body Mass Index.

Clinical obesity - 1 Oct 2026

Varghese Ron T, Varghese Diana G

Abstract excerpt

Lipoedema is a painful adipose tissue disorder marked by disproportionate limb fat and often misclassified as generalized obesity or lymphoedema. This review examines its metabolic phenotype and implications for cardiometabolic assessment and management. PubMed/MEDLINE was searched from inception through May 2026 for studies on lipoedema, obesity, body composition, metabolic risk, insulin resistance, diabetes,...
