Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

This study describes a rare case of eruptive xanthomas in a patient with normal blood lipids, linked to generalized edema. The findings suggest capillary leak syndrome caused these xanthomas by increasing vascular permeability and lipoprotein leakage into the skin.
