Lipodystrophy related to insulin injection—often overlooked disorder.
- Authors
Brož, Jan
- Abstract
Lipodystrophy related to insulin injection - often overlooked disorder Dear Editors, I read with much interest the Wiener klinische Wochenschrift paper by Trabauer et al. on an incidental finding of abdominal lipodystrophy (LD) on the computed tomography (CT) scan in a type 1 diabetes mellitus patient [[1]]. In LD prevention, the proper insulin delivery techniques, including regular injection site rotation, avoidance of areas already affected by LD, and limited insulin needle reuse, is essential [[2]].
