Label	Id	Description
Linitis Plastica	D008039	[A condition where the stomach wall becomes thickened, rubbery and loses its ability to distend. The stomach assumes a "leather bottle" shape. It is most often seen in adenocarcinoma of the stomach. The term is often used synonymously with diffuse adenocarcinoma of the stomach.]
Lip Diseases	D008047	[Diseases involving the LIP.]
Lip Neoplasms	D008048	[Tumors or cancer of the LIP.]
Lipedema	D065134	[Lipedema with secondary LYMPHEDEMA involvement., Disorder of adipose tissue characterized by symmetric and bilateral enlargement of the lower extremities due to abnormal deposition of SUBCUTANEOUS FAT often in obese women. It is associated with HEMATOMA, pain and may progress to secondary LYMPHEDEMA which is known as lipolymphedema.]
Lipid Metabolism Disorders	D052439	[Pathological conditions resulting from abnormal anabolism or catabolism of lipids in the body.]
Lipid Metabolism, Inborn Errors	D008052	[Errors in the metabolism of LIPIDS resulting from inborn genetic MUTATIONS that are heritable.]
Lipidoses	D008064	[Conditions characterized by abnormal lipid deposition due to disturbance in lipid metabolism, such as hereditary diseases involving lysosomal enzymes required for lipid breakdown. They are classified either by the enzyme defect or by the type of lipid involved.]
Lipoblastoma	D062689	[Benign tumors of fatty tissues found in infancy and childhood. It is associated chromosomal aberrations that result in activation of an oncogene on chromosome band 8q12.]
Lipodystrophy	D008060	[A collection of heterogenous conditions resulting from defective LIPID METABOLISM and characterized by ADIPOSE TISSUE atrophy. Often there is redistribution of body fat resulting in peripheral fat wasting and central adiposity. They include generalized, localized, congenital, and acquired lipodystrophy.]
Lipodystrophy, Congenital Generalized	D052497	[It is caused by mutations of gene encoding 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase-2 (AGPAT2)., Congenital disorders, usually autosomal recessive, characterized by severe generalized lack of ADIPOSE TISSUE, extreme INSULIN RESISTANCE, and HYPERTRIGLYCERIDEMIA., It is caused by mutation of gene encoding seipin (BSCL2).]
Lipodystrophy, Familial Partial	D052496	[Inherited conditions characterized by the partial loss of ADIPOSE TISSUE, either confined to the extremities with normal or increased fat deposits on the face, neck and trunk (type 1), or confined to the loss of SUBCUTANEOUS FAT from the limbs and trunk (type 2). Type 3 is associated with mutation in the gene encoding PEROXISOME PROLIFERATOR-ACTIVATED RECEPTOR GAMMA., This type can be caused by mutation in the gene encoding PEROXISOME PROLIFERATOR-ACTIVATED RECEPTOR GAMMA., This type can be caused by mutation in the gene encoding LAMIN TYPE A.]
Lipoid Proteinosis of Urbach and Wiethe	D008065	[An autosomal recessive disorder characterized by glassy degenerative thickening (hyalinosis) of SKIN; MUCOSA; and certain VISCERA. This disorder is caused by mutation in the extracellular matrix protein 1 gene (ECM1). Clinical features include hoarseness and skin eruption due to widespread deposition of HYALIN.]
Lipoma	D008067	[A benign tumor composed of fat cells (ADIPOCYTES). It can be surrounded by a thin layer of connective tissue (encapsulated), or diffuse without the capsule., A rare benign human tumor consisting of BROWN ADIPOCYTES resembling those found in some hibernating animals.]
Lipomatosis	D008068	[A disorder characterized by the accumulation of encapsulated or unencapsulated tumor-like fatty tissue resembling LIPOMA.]
Lipomatosis, Multiple Symmetrical	D008069	[Diffuse lipomatosis of the neck. It is also known as fat neck or horsecollar lipomata., A condition characterized by the growth of unencapsulated masses of ADIPOSE TISSUE symmetrically deposited around the neck, shoulders, or other sites around the body.]
Liposarcoma	D008080	[A malignant tumor derived from primitive or embryonal lipoblastic cells. It may be composed of well-differentiated fat cells or may be dedifferentiated: myxoid (LIPOSARCOMA, MYXOID), round-celled, or pleomorphic, usually in association with a rich network of capillaries. Recurrences are common and dedifferentiated liposarcomas metastasize to the lungs or serosal surfaces. (From Dorland, 27th ed; Stedman, 25th ed)]
Liposarcoma, Myxoid	D018208	[A liposarcoma containing round mesenchymal cells and a myxoid extracellular matrix in stroma.]
Lissencephaly	D054082	[A smooth brain malformation of the CEREBRAL CORTEX resulting from the abnormal location of developing neurons during corticogenesis. It is characterized by an absence of normal convoluted indentations on the surface of the brain (agyria), or fewer and shallower indentations (pachygryia). There is a reduced number of cortical layers, typically 4 instead of 6, resulting in a thickened cortex, and reduced cerebral white matter that is a reversal of the normal ratio of cerebral white matter to cortex.]
Listeriosis	D008088	[Infections with bacteria of the genus LISTERIA.]
Lithiasis	D020347	[A condition characterized by the formation of CALCULI and concretions in the hollow organs or ducts of the body. They occur most often in the gallbladder, kidney, and lower urinary tract.]
