Merge with body fat redistribution syndrome
The article
body fat redistribution syndrome appears to be about the same topic as HIV-associated lipodystrophy. A search for "body fat redistribution syndrome" leads to pages about lipodystrophy and even a page (
Radiopaedia) showing the two to be synonyms. --

Lipodystrophy and HIV related lipodystrophy not the same: It doesn't seem to be the same disease. The HIV related one are caused by the extensive use of antiretroviral therapy whereas lipodystrophy can happen in people without HIV infection. Therefore I think there should be maintained two different pages, maybe with a reference in both to each other.
