Informations about the disease

Clinical Comment

Type V of Fredrickson is characterized by increased amounts of chylomicrons + very low density lipoprotein (VLDL), decreased LDL + high density lipoprotein (HDL) in the plasma after a fast. Numerous conditions cause this phenotype, including insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, contraceptive steroids, alcohol abuse, glycogen storage disease I. Symptoms include bouts of abdominal pain + eruptive xanthoma.
