Abstract

Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is an autosomal dominant disease predominantly caused by a mutation in the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene. Here, we describe two severely affected FH patients who were resistant to statin therapy and were managed on an apheresis program. We identified a novel duplication variant c.1332dup, p.(D445*) at exon 9 and a known silent variant c.1413A>G, p.(=), rs5930, NM_001195798.1 at exon 10 of the LDLR gene in both patients.
