정상지질혈증을 가진 환자에서 발생한 양측 아킬레스건의 황색종 = Xanthomas of the Bilateral Achilles Tendon in a Normolipidemic Patient

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Xanthoma is a relatively rare soft tissue lesion on the Achilles tendon and is usually associated with hyperlipidemia (lipid metabolism abnormality), mental retardation, cataract and atherosclerotic disease. We report on a case of normolipidemic bilateral Achilles tendon xanthoma without any notable cause. We herein describe the case where we achieved a satisfactory result by subtotal resection.
