Abstract:
We studied a 60-year-old male with idiopathic (primary) hemochromatosis and type III hyperlipoproteinemia. Periodical phlebotomy therapy could favourably influence the disease of iron metabolism as well as the familial lipoprotein disorder in addition to fenofibrate treatment. Idiopathic hemochromatosis as aggravating cause of type III hyperlipoproteinemia has not been reported yet.
