Abstract
We describe a patient with markedly elevated lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) without any other lipid abnormalities. After a myocardial infarction, she was treated with combination of extended-release niacin and statin. An 88% reduction in Lp(a) was observed during 5 years of treatment, which is much better response than usually reported.
