Monogene Adipositas

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Adipositas bei Kindern und Jugendlichen

Zusammenfassung

Das Wissen über monogene Adipositasformen hat in den letzten Jahren enorm zugenommen und gewinnt zunehmend an Bedeutung in der pädiatrischen Endokrinologie. Zum einen kann es für die Betroffenen eine ausgeprägte Erleichterung bedeuten, die Ursache ihrer Adipositas zu verstehen. Außerdem kann einigen wenigen Patienten kann sogar eine kausale oder zumindest optimierte Therapie angeboten werden. Selten vorkommende biallelische Varianten im Leptin-Melanokortin-Signalweg führen zu einer schweren frühkindlichen Adipositas. Bei Patienten mit extremer Hyperphagie und einem BMI über 25 kg/m2 im 2. Lebensjahr oder von >30 kg/m2 im 5. Lebensjahr bzw. einem BMI-SDS >4 sollte auf jeden Fall eine Diagnostik hinsichtlich einer monogenen Adipositas eingeleitet werden.
