  • Title: Hypertriglyceridemia: severe type V hyperlipidemia in a young woman.
    Author: Titanji R, Paz-Guevara A.
    Journal: Md Med J; 1992 Mar; 41(3):231-3. PubMed ID: 1602929.
    Abstract:
    We present a patient with the typical clinical and biochemical features of severe Type V hyperlipidemia associated with alcohol consumption and estrogen use. Prompt medical intervention resulted in normalization of her lipid profile. We review the lipoprotein composition, the role of lipoproteins in lipid transport with special emphasis on triglycerides, and the clinical features, pathogenesis, and management of Type V hyperlipidemia.
