Hypertrophie du tissu adipeux après Lipostructure® chez un sujet séropositif traité par antirétroviraux. Cas clinique et revue de littérature

HIV-related facial atrophy is a common complication due to antiretroviral treatment. The social handicap due to this lipodystrophy increase the demand of surgical correction. The usual treatment is the Lipostructure® described by Coleman. The hypertrophy is one of the complications which can occur after a correction by Lipostructure®. This complication is different from the overcorrection by the free time before his appearance. The treatment by liposuction is possible but there is a high risk of recurrence. The best treatment, after the literature review, seems to be the direct excision.
