Lipedema is a complex chronic disease that is relatively rare and often misdiagnosed. It is characterized by localized deposition of adipose tissue in the lower extremities, often occurring in females with a family history of the condition. Different treatment options can be considered, both interventional and conservative options.
This MOH Talk discusses the synergistic collaboration between surgical interventions with lipoedema patients and an enlightening study on the efficacy of compression products.
