Resumo:

Aims: Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is an autosomal dominant disorder with increased cardiovascular risk, caused by mutations in LDLR, APOB and PCSK 9 genes. Although it is described that over 1700 variants have been found, none of the existing databases are completely updated. The aim of this work is to construct a FH database in order to provide a unique source of verified information about variants associated with FH for a more accurate genetic diagnosis.
