Puget S et al. – The authors describe 2 children who developed obesity that could not be explained by endocrinological, genetic, or eating disorders. To the authors' knowledge, these are the first cases of hypothalamic lipomas likely to be causing obesity that have been described in children. These cases highlight the importance of performing cranial MR imaging in children with otherwise unexplained obesity.
