Benign symmetric lipomatosis, also called Madelung's disease, is characterized by lipomata and fatty infiltrations. Involvement of the nervous system has occasionally been described, mitochondrial dysfunctions have been suggested. We report a 55 year old male suffering from benign symmetric lipomatosis with associated axonal neuropathy and hyperlipoproteinemia. He showed a remarkable phenotype of neuropathy i.e. no sensory disturbance, ubiquitous fasciculations and muscle cramps, furthermore reduced COX activity and abnormalities in specific mitochondrial tRNA regions.
