Description : Mandibuloacral dysplasia with type A lipodystrophy (MADA) is an autosomal recessive
disorder characterized by growth retardation, craniofacial anomalies with mandibular
hypoplasia, skeletal abnormalities with progressive osteolysis of the distal phalanges
and clavicles, and pigmentary skin changes. The lipodystrophy is characterized by
a marked acral loss of fatty tissue with normal or increased fatty tissue in the neck
and trunk. Some patients may show progeroid features. Metabolic complications can
arise due to insulin resistance and diabetes (Young et al., 1971; Simha and Garg,
2002; summary by Garavelli et al., 2009). See also MAD type B (MADB; 608612), which
is caused by mutation in the;
