A pedigree analysis of familial hypercholesterolemia in monozygote twin brothers.

abstract：:Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) frequently reveals plaque formation at sites with a normal angiographic appearance. However, whether angiographically normal coronary arteries undergo adaptive expansion in vivo remains uncertain. The authors studied 12 patients (11 men, 1 woman; mean age fifty-three +/- ten years [mean...
