Localized involutional lipoatrophy (LIL) is a rare distinctive idiopathic form of localized lipoatrophy. The characteristic features in histopathology of LIL are diminutive fat lobules composed of small adipocyte resembling fetal fat tissue. LIL is not a well-known disorder, there have been only a few reports on LIL in the English literature. We herein report 2 cases of LIL and review the previously published cases.

This research was conducted to examine the effect of cholecalciferol on fasting blood glucose (FBG), adipocyte diameter and glucose transporter (GLUT) 4 expression in adipocytes of diabetic rats. Nineteen male Wistar strain diabetic rats were divided into 4 groups (K, X1, X2 and X3). Cholecalciferol was administered in the amount of 6.25 μg/kg in X1, 12.5 μg/kg in X2 and 25 μg/kg in X3 per orem, once daily for 14 days. Group K received the placebo. There were no significant differences in FBG (p=0.199) and adipocyte diameter (p=0.218) between groups but there were significant differences in the expression of GLUT4 between control and treatment groups. Thus, cholecalciferol can increase GLUT4 expression in adipocyte without altering FBG and adipocyte diameter of diabetic rats.

Lipomas are the most common benign mesenchymal tumors composed of mature fat cells. They can be classified into superficial lipoma (subcutaneous lipoma) or deep lipoma (subfascial lipoma) depending on the depth they develop. The latter is quite rare and tends to be less circumscribed and relatively fixed compared to the superficial ones. Therefore, it is initially misdiagnosed as other superficial lesions, and pre-operative awareness of deep tumors is important to differentiate them from other superficial lesions. Futhermore, the removal of the tumor also requires a detailed knowledge of the anatomy of the forehead, plus more sophisticated surgical skills so as not to damage important structures in the forehead such as vessels and nerves. Herein, we report 8 cases of deep lipoma on the forehead, demonstrating that it is not as rare as reported.

9.Familial Case of Nevus Lipomatosus Superficialis.
Annals of Dermatology 1995;7(1):88-92
Nevus lipomatosus superficialis is a rare. disease entity characterized by ectopic dermal fat cells. The lesions are usually either congenital or present by the second decade of life and occur pre-dominantly in the pelvic area. There´are usually no associated abnormalities and familial incidence is not yet reported in English language literature. The authors report a familial case of nevus lipomatosus superficialis with characteristic light and electron microscopic findings.

Nevus sebaceous (NS) is a type of classical nevus or congenital malformation that is often present at birth and commonly involves the scalp or face. The lesion usually presents as a linear, yellow, hairless, and verrucous plaque. It has been well-established that several benign and malignant tumors can develop from the NS; however, there have been no reports about ectopic fat cells in the dermis, and cornoid lamella arising from the NS. We report a case of NS on the scalp with accompanying unusual histopathologic findings.
