Familial multiple lipomatosis.

A clinical study was made of 14 cases of multiple symmetrical lipomata in two families. There were 7 female and 7 male patients. In one family the members affected were observed in four generations. The disease set in during the third or fourth decade of life. The lipomata ranged in size from that of a pea to that of a hen's egg. They were limited to the forearms and trunk were asymptomatic.

[Johanson-Blizzard's syndrome: another cause of pancreatic lipomatosis (author's transl)].

A new case of Johanson-Blizzard's syndrome is reported. It concerns a boy born to consanguineous parents and who died at the age of 10 months from malnutrition. Anal imperforation, alar agenesia, hair anomalies, mental retardation and external pancreatic failure were associated. Neither deafness nor hypothyroidism appeared to be present. Autopsy revealed lipomatous hypoplasia of the exocrine pancreas, hitherto unobserved in this syndrome, and probably responsible for the external pancreatic failure noted in published cases. The variability within a given family of the Johanson-Blizzard malformative syndrome is illustrated by two other cases reported in the anamnesis, one involving a brother who had died earlier with cutaneous aplasia at the fontanella and lacrimal canal malposition and one involving a second cousin who presented with isolated anal imperforation.
