[A severely disturbed lipid profile].
We report here the case of a 30-year-old woman presenting a disturbed lipid profile since her childhood. The rarity of this pathology (Anderson' disease or chylomicron retention disease) and its recent recognition explain its late detection in this case. The description of the biochemical profile is interesting especially the low level of vitamin A and E which explains the severity of the disease. A vitamin enriched-diet may be useful.
