| Abstract: | Primary systemic amyloidosis with severe hyperlipidemia, suspected to be
secondary to hepatic involvement, is described. A 48-year-old man was admitted with
pretibial edema and abdominal fullness. Laboratory data showed severe hyperlipidemia
with lipoprotein X and nephrotic syndrome. Based on biopsy findings of the kidney and
liver, he was diagnosed with primary systemic amyloidosis. Hyperlipidemia in this patient
was too severe to result only from nephrotic syndrome. Moreover, with lipoprotein X
present, we suggest that hepatic amyloidosis can be a cause of severe hyperlipidemia in
primary systemic amyloidosis. |
