Differential Diagnosis
摘要
In this chapter, we explore disorders associated with subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), where fat within this compartment abnormally grows in amount or structure, frequently causing pain and discomfort. SAT, comprised of loose connective tissue or adipofascia, is the most prevalent connective tissue in vertebrates and involves components such as blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, immune cells, mesenchymal stem cells, fascia, and the interstitial matrix organ.
