Progressive Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD) from a Young Age Due to a Rare Genetic Disorder, Familial Partial Lipodystrophy: A Case Report and Review of the Literature
Steatotic liver disease is common in the general population and is associated with higher risk for cardiovascular diseases. Early diagnosis and appropriate therapy can prevent the development of irreversible end-stage liver fibrosis and reduce liver-related and cardiovascular mortality. It is important to recognise not only the common causes of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus or morbid obesity, but also rare conditions, because their treatment is different from conventional therapy. Here, we report a female patient with familial partial lipodystrophy, in whom the diagnosis was not confirmed until several years after the initial manifestation, which delayed the start of pathogenetic therapy. After the initiation of leptin replacement therapy, a significant improvement in liver stiffness measurement was achieved within a few months. In addition, we summarise the current treatment options for diabetes and their influence on steatosis hepatis. © 2024 by the authors.
