Familial Chylomicronemia Syndrome

Familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS) is a rare genetic disorder that affects the way the body processes fats. It is caused by mutations in the genes that regulate the production of an enzyme called lipoprotein lipase (LPL). People with FCS have extremely high levels of triglycerides in their blood, which can lead to severe pancreatitis, abdominal pain, and other complications.
