ABSTRACT
Herein, we report a case in which cholestasis caused discrepancy in high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol levels measured using various methods. The discrepancy in HDL-cholesterol level originated from the abnormal increase in the level of an unusual lipoprotein, apo E-rich HDL, in the patient's serum. An abnormal slow alpha-migrating lipoprotein was observed on agarose gel electrophoresis, and an abnormal large-sized HDL was observed in a lipoprotein subfraction study. The level of apolipoprotein E was elevated.
