Clinical features and genetic analysis of a Brazilian patient with sitosterolemia: a case report

ABSTRACT Sitosterolemia is a rare genetic lipid disorder caused by mutations in the ABCG5/ABCG8, genes. It is characterized by plasmatic plant sterols accumulation, formation of tendon and tuberous xanthomas and early onset coronary artery disease. The differential diagnosis with other congenital dy...
