Antiretroviral treatment-associated labia majora lipohypertrophy: a rare case and plastic surgical treatment options / Akmal Hisham … [et al.]

The emergence of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has revolutionized the prognosis of HIV-infected patients. However, the extended use of HAART is associated with a disfiguring complication termed lipodystrophy, a disorder of body fat maldistribution causing peripheral fat loss (lipoatro...
