Extremely Rare Genetic Lipodystrophy Syndromes

Lipodystrophy Gene Clinical Features
MAD Type B ZMPSTE24 Craniofacial, cutaneous and skeletal abnormalities, premature renal failure and progeroid features, generalized loss of fat22
MDP syndrome POLD1 Mandibular hypoplasia, deafness and progeroid features, progressive lipodystrophy23
Neonatal progeroid syndrome type a FBN1 Marfanoid/ progeroid appearance, dilated aortic bulb, bilateral subluxation of the lens, myopia in addition to severe generalized lipodystrophy, and muscle mass, no significant metabolic abnormalities associated with insulin resistance24
Nestor-Guillermo Progeria Syndrome BANF1 Growth retardation, decreased subcutaneous fat, thin limbs and stiff joints25
Keppen-Lubinsky syndrome KCNJ6 Severe intellectual disability, microcephaly, developmental delay, prominent large eyes, progeroid features with an open mouth, and generalized lipodystrophy.26
SPRTN mutations SPRTN Genomic instability, progeroid features, lipodystrophy, and hepatocellular carcinoma27

Note: The Werner Syndrome is also included in this category. Data from Wuyts et al19 and Kashyap et al.21
