Familial hypertriglyceridemia-induced acute necrotizing pancreatitis: A case report
Acutepancreatitis can infrequently be a life-threatening complication of hypertriglyceridemia. Rarely, hypertriglyceridemia can originate from an inborn genetic error in lipoproteins metabolism. This condition can be manifested by very high serum triglyceride levels (>1000 mg/dl) and a more severe and lethal form of pancreatitis. Here, we present a case of acute pancreatic which was found out t...
متن کاملAbnormal lipoprotein lipase in familial exogenous hypertriglyceridemia.
A 5-yr old male proband and his sister have had hypertriglyceridemia and hepatosplenomegaly since birth. When studied on a metabolic ward, they demonstrated rapid decreases in serum triglycerides on 3 g fat/day diets. Oral glucose tolerance tests were normal. Postheparin lipolytic activity (PHLA) against chylomicrons was virtually absent in both children whereas the mother and a normolipemic si...
متن کاملXanthoma disseminatum with extensive koebnerization associated with familial hypertriglyceridemia
FHTG: familial hypertriglyceridemia HDL: high-density lipoprotein LCH: Langerhan’s cell histiocytosis LDL: low-density lipoprotein VLDL: very low-density lipoprotein XD: xanthoma disseminatum INTRODUCTION Xanthoma disseminatum (XD) is a rare subtype of non-Langerhan’s cell histiocytosis (non-LCH). To date, just greater than 100 cases of XD have been reported; however, association with hyperlipi...
متن کاملHypertriglyceridemia
Hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) is commonly encountered in lipid and cardiology clinics. Severe HTG warrants treatment because of the associated increased risk of acute pancreatitis. However, the need to treat, and the correct treatment approach for patients with mild to moderate HTG are issues for ongoing evaluation. In the past, it was felt that triglyceride does not directly contribute to develop...
متن کاملPlasma lipoproteins in familial combined hyperlipidemia and monogenic familial hypertriglyceridemia.
Plasma lipoprotein concentration, composition, and size were evaluated in two common familial forms of hypertriglyceridemia and compared with those in normal subjects. The very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) were triglyceride-enriched in familial hypertriglyceridemia (triglyceride/apoprotein B ratio: 25.7 +/- 8.9) as compared to normal (9.6 +/- 12.2, P < 0.001) or familial combined hyperlipide...
