Patients with familial hypercholesterolemia usually present with high levels of serum low-density lipoprotein, xanthomas and early coronary artery disease. A 13 years old female patient was admitted to Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University presenting symptoms of heart failure. Laboratory tests showed that her cholesterol and low-density lipid levels were extremely high. Electrocardiogram test revealed that she had sinus tachycardia, QT lengthening and ST-T change. Multiple cardiac function abnormalities were diagnosed by echocardiogram. Multiple coronary artery stenosis was determined by computed tomography angiography. After the combination of lipid lowering, anti-thrombosis, and cardiac remodeling therapies, the patient's symptoms were significantly improved and the patient was discharged.
家族性高胆固醇血症患者通常表现为血清低密度脂蛋白水平升高、出现黄色瘤和早期冠状动脉疾病。一名13岁女性患者因出现心力衰竭症状入住重庆医科大学附属儿童医院。实验室检查显示她的胆固醇和低密度脂蛋白水平极高。心电图检查显示她有窦性心动过速、QT间期延长和ST-T改变。超声心动图诊断出多项心功能异常。计算机断层扫描血管造影确定存在多处冠状动脉狭窄。经过降脂、抗血栓和心脏重塑治疗相结合后,患者症状明显改善并出院。
