Overview

There are various types of lesion that can lead to adiposogenital dystrophy, most of which result from an injury of a part of the arcuate nucleus and ventromedial nuclei of the hypothalamus. Deep brain stimulation has also been seen to produce similar symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease.

Causes

  • Deep brain stimulation [6] [7]. Some patients were observed to have an increase in weight of up to 20kg[8].
  • Other causes of adiposogenital dystrophy include Friedreich ataxia, demyelinating diseases, and microcephaly[15] [16]
