Overview

Low chylomicron remnant can be caused by various factors, with malabsorption and hyperthyroidism[1] being the most common. Genetic, drug side effect, and gastroenterologic disease were also reported to cause low chylomicron remnant.

Low Chylomicron Remnant Causes

Life Threatening Causes

Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated. Low chylomicron remnant in itself is not a life threatening condition.
