مستخلص: Acquired partial lipodystrophy (APL) or Barraquer-Simons syndrome is a rare form of progressive lipodystrophy of unknown etiology. Metabolic complications are less common than with other lipodystrophies. Patients usually have renal involvement in the form of membrenoproliferative glomeruloneprhitis which can lead to end stage renal disease. Here we report a case illustrating the importance of recognizing the clinical features of lipodystrophic syndrome, which may present with potentially severe consequences and psychological distress. A brief overview is made, addressing the disease, course, and its consequences. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
