title: Pyridoxine-responsive hypolipidemia and hypocholesterolemia in a patient with pyridoxine-responsive anemia.
abstract: A case of pyridoxine-responsive anemia with hypolipidemia and hypocholesterolemia responsive to pyridoxine is presented. It is suggested that abnormalities of the serum lipids are common but often unrecognized in patients with pyridoxine-responsive anemia. A mechanism to explain their occurrence is postulated.
