  Supergrp
Hypoalphalipoproteinemia [DS:H00930]
Description
Lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder of HDL metabolism characterized by low HDL-cholesterol level in blood and accumulation of free cholesterol in tissue leading to a triad of corneal dystrophy, hemolytic anemia, and proteinuria.
