OVERVIEW FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION-APPROVED INDICATIONS Kanuma (sebelipase) is a hydrolytic lysosomal cholesteryl ester and triacylglycerol-specific enzyme indicated for the treatment of patients with a diagnosis of Lysosomal Acid Lipase (LAL) deficiency. Lysosomal Acid Lipase deficiency is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder characterized by a genetic defect (mutation in the LIPA gene) resulting in a marked decrease or loss in activity of the LAL enzyme. The primary site of action of the LAL enzyme is the lysoso me, where the enzyme normally causes the breakdown of lipid particles. Deficient LAL enzyme activity results in progressive complications due to the lysosomal accumulation of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides in multiple organs, including the liver, spleen, intestine, and the walls of blood vessels.

It expresses Molina's determination as to whether certain services or supplies are medically necessary, experimental, investigational, or cosmetic for purposes of determining appropriateness of payment. The conclusion that a particular service or supply is medically necessary does not constitute a representation or warranty that this service or supply is covered (i.e., will be paid for by Molina) for a particular member. The member's benefit plan determines coverage. Each benefit plan defines which services are covered, which are excluded, and which are subject to dollar caps or other limits. Members and their providers will need to consult the member's benefit plan to determine if there are any exclusion(s) or other benefit limitations applicable to this service or supply. If there is a discrepancy between this policy and a member's plan of benefits, the benefits plan will govern. In addition, coverage may be mandated by applicable legal requirements of a State, the Federal government or CMS for Medicare and Medicaid members. CMS's Coverage Database can be found on the CMS website. The coverage directive(s) and criteria from an existing National Coverage Determination (NCD) or Local Coverage Determination (LCD) will supersede the contents of this MCP document and provide the directive for all Medicare members.

Here we report a 16 year-old girl who presented with repeated episodes of hepatic encephalopathy with onset of first symptom at 9 years of age with history of consanguinity of marriage between parents. On examination, we found hepatosplenomegaly. Laboratory examination showed abnormal lipid profile and reduced activity of acid lipase enzyme in leukocytes. After exclusion of other possible pathological conditions and on the basis of lab criteria, we diagnose the case as Cholesteryl Ester Storage Disease (CESD). KKKeeeywords: Cholesteryl Ester Storage Disease (CESD), cholesteryl esters, triglycerides, Lysosomal Acid Lipase. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jom.v19i2.37235 Introduction: symptoms and may go undiagnosed until adulthood. CESD CESD is inherited as an autosomal recessive condition 1 So is characterized by alterations of blood lipoprotein profile; parents who are close relatives (consanguineous) have a patients present with hypercholesterolemia, higher chance to have children with a recessive genetic hypertriglyceridaemia, HDL deficiency with abnormal lipid disorder. CESD affects males and females in equal numbers.2 deposition in many organs.
