It is reported on a 44-year-old patient who has a peculiar form of the disturbance of the distribution of fatty tissue. Apart from clear superficial hypertrophies at upper arms, shoulders, thorax and hypogastrium as well as plum-sized nodes at the left femor and retroauricularly discrete atrophies are found in the face, at forearms and lower legs. In very inconspicuous paraclinical findings special forms of the progressive lipodystrophy and of the indolent symmetrical lipomatosis are discussed.
