List of xanthoma variants associated with hyperlipoproteinemia subtypes
This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by expanding it with reliably sourced entries.
When the cholesterol levels in the body rise above the normal level a number of skin lesions can occur. Xanthomas are one of types of skin lesions that may occur in this situation.
