Genetic lipid disorders are inherited conditions that affect how the body processes fats, leading to abnormal levels of lipids, such as cholesterol and triglycerides, in the blood. These disorders can increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases and other health issues. Common examples include familial hypercholesterolemia and chylomicronemia syndrome. These disorders result from mutations in specific genes that regulate lipid metabolism. Diagnosis often involves blood tests to measure lipid levels, and management may include lifestyle changes, medications, or other treatments to help control lipid levels and reduce associated health risks.
