Abstract
Obesity is a complex and multifactorial disease resulting from the interaction between
genes and environment. The increasing prevalence of obesity in paediatric age needs a
reasoned approach to obese children and the identification of also less frequent forms
such as monogenic and syndromic obesity. The aim of this article is to give the key elements
for a complete anamnestic and clinical evaluation of obese children in order to
recognize monogenic and syndromic forms of obesity and produce a correct diagnostic
flow chart when suspecting syndromic obesity.
