Abstract: This case study examines the clinical presentation, diagnostic challenges, and management of Macrodystrophia Lipomatosa MDL, an uncommon congenital condition characterized by abnormal growth of adipose tissue. The study involves a series of case reports from childhood to adolescence, highlighting the variability in presentation and progression. MRI imaging was crucial in diagnosis and surgical planning, especially in advanced cases with neurovascular involvement. The findings underscore the importance of early diagnosis and tailored treatment strategies to manage MDLs functional and cosmetic impacts.
