Adiposis dolorosa is a disease characterized by painful, subcutaneous fatty tumors. This disorder usually occurs in obese, postmenopausal women and is associated with weakness and mental disturbances such as depression, confusion, lethargy, and dementia. The cause is unknown, and there is no specific treatment. Pain may be relieved by steroids, intravenous lidocaine, or analgesics. Surgical treatment consists of excision or liposuction of the painful masses. We present two cases of adiposis dolorosa in men, with a follow-up of more than 10 years.
痛性肥胖症是一种以疼痛性皮下脂肪肿瘤为特征的疾病。这种病症通常发生在肥胖的绝经后女性中，且与虚弱及精神障碍有关，如抑郁、意识模糊、嗜睡和痴呆。病因不明，也没有特效治疗方法。类固醇、静脉注射利多卡因或镇痛药可能会缓解疼痛。手术治疗包括切除或抽吸疼痛性肿块。我们报告两例男性痛性肥胖症病例，并进行了超过10年的随访。
