Core Tip |
Madelung’s disease (MD) is a rare disorder of lipid metabolism, characterized by symmetrically deposited unencapsulated masses of adipose tissue. Liver disease is one of the most common comorbidities of MD, but no reports exist of comorbid kidney disease. Here, we report a male patient, 60 years of age, diagnosed as MD with acute exacerbation of chronic alcoholic liver disease and acute kidney injury. This case reminds us that in the diagnosis and treatment of MD, in addition to the known liver comorbidities, we also need to consider renal function in order to detect any concomitant kidney disease. |
