The impact of lipomatous tumors on type 2 diabetes: are adipose-derived tumors metabolically active?
CONCLUSIONS: Poorly controlled diabetes was linked to the presence of large, malignant, and retroperitoneal lipomatous tumors. However, in limited follow-up, no detectable impact of tumor resection was apparent on glycemic control. These data suggest that most lipomatous tumors do not exert a clinically relevant impact on glucose homeostasis.
