Panniculus morbidus: obesity-related abdominal wall lymphoedema.
BMJ Case Reports 2017 April 30
A 52-year-old female patient presented with a massive abdominal wall swelling that adversely affected her lifestyle.

We describe the surgical technique used to retract the lymphoedematous tissue facilitating excisional surgery, and discuss the pathophysiology of this condition and the possible contribution of venous obstruction to the development of subcutaneous oedema.
