[Normolipemic xanthoma planum and its associated syndromes]

The clinical feature of xanthoma is related to syndromes with quite different dignity. The clinical picture of diffuse plane normolipemic xanthoma represents a benign skin disease while the form of so-called plane xanthoma is frequently associated with lymphoproliferative processes (paraproteinemia, myeloma, lymphoma, leukemia). In this paper these principal points are stressed on the base of own cases and by survey of literature.
