Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis is a rare inherited disorder of bile acid metabolism producing xanthomata and severe, progressive neurological deficits. In spite of the rarity of the condition it is important because it is treatable: the neurological deterioration can be halted and in some cases reversed.
脑腱黄瘤病是一种罕见的胆汁酸代谢遗传性疾病，可产生黄瘤和严重的进行性神经功能缺损。尽管这种疾病很罕见，但它很重要，因为它是可治疗的：神经功能恶化可以停止，在某些情况下还可以逆转。
