Resumo
Familial hypobetalipoproteinaemia is a disorder of lipid metabolism characterized by low levels of total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and apolipoprotein B. ApoBrelated familial hypolipoproteinemia is an autosomal condition with a codominance inheritance pattern. Non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia is an autosomal recessive disorder due to mutations in the CYP21A2, a gene encoding for the enzyme 21-hydroxylase, which results in an androgen excess production from adrenal source. We here present the case of a 25-yearold woman with NCAH showing decreased levels of total-cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglycerides. Her parent had digestive symptoms and severe hepatic steatosis with elevated liver enzymes, as well as decreased levels of total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. A genetic-molecular study of the proband identified a mutation in the APOB gene, which allowed a diagnosis of heterozygous ApoB-related hypolipoproteinaemia to be made.
