Abstract

Lipedema, historically underrecognized, has recently gained attention due to advancements in research and growing public awareness. The Brazilian Consensus Statement on Lipedema, developed by the Brazilian Society of Angiology and Vascular Surgery, aims to establish clear recommendations for the diagnosis, treatment, and management of lipedema. Using the Delphi methodology, experts elaborated 90 statements about lipedema, which were then evaluated by a panel of 113 professionals. The statements were analyzed using SurveyMonkey, with a 75% agreement threshold required for their inclusion in the consensus statement. Most statements achieved significant consensus, with only 9 topics requiring further investigation. This consensus statement highlights the complexity of lipedema, the effectiveness of conservative treatment over surgery, the need for multidisciplinary approaches, and the importance of awareness to reduce underdiagnosis and stigma. It also underscores the ongoing need for research to develop more effective management strategies.
