Surgical excision of the tendon xanthoma in familial hypercholesterolemia--a case report.

The Kaohsiung journal of medical sciences - 1 Jul 1999

Lin G T

Abstract excerpt

Familial hypercholesterolemia is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by increased low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, premature atherosclerosis and tendon xanthomas. Genetic studies reveal familial hypercholesterolemia to be a dysfunction of LDL receptor gene on cell surface. Recently various mutations in the LDL receptor gene have been reported. When DNA method is not available, the occurrence of...
