What is the history of Lipedema?
When was Lipedema discovered? What is the story of this discovery? Was it coincidence or not?
In my research I found papers that stated that Lipedema was first described by Allen and Hines in 1940. (Allen EV, Hines EAJ. Lipedema of the legs: a syndrome characterised by fat legs and orthostatic edema. Proc Staff Meet Mayo Clin 1940; 15: 184–187)
