Lipedematous scalp with obesity in a child

Abstract

An 11-year-old girl applied for having a spongy consistency of swellings in various part of her scalp. The overlying skin and hair growth of these areas appeared normal. There was no evidence of systemic disease except for exogenous obesity. Ultrasonography showed thickening of the subcutaneous tissue on the swelling part of the scalp. Histopathological examination revealed elastic fibre fragmentation on dermis and increased thickness in the subcutaneous fat tissue containing numerous hair follicles. The clinical features and the histopathological changes in the lesion were consistent with a diagnosis of lipedematous scalp, which has previously been described predominantly in adult women.
