Launois-Bensaude Syndrome (LBS) is a very rare cause of obesity, characterized by a symmetrical accumulation of a very large number of lipomata in different regions of the body, excluding the face, the forearms, and the shanks. Obesity is known to be closely associated with insulin resistance, hyperleptinemia, and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We were interested in studying whether these conditions are also present in patients with obesity due to LBS with a similar frequency as in patients with "simple" truncal obesity.
