Abstract

Xanthoma is a relatively rare soft tissue lesion on the Achilles tendon and is usually associated with hyperlipidemia (lipidmetabolism abnormality), mental retardation, cataract and atherosclerotic disease. We report on a case of normolipidemicbilateral Achilles tendon xanthoma without any notable cause. We herein describe the case where we achieved a satisfactoryresult by subtotal resection.
