Xantomas tuberosos são nódulos firmes amarelo-avermelhados que ocorrem sobre locais de pressão: geralmente indicam a presença de hiperlipidemia tipo 3 (hiperlipoproteinemia tipo III). Começam como pequenos xantomas, geralmente sobre as faces extensoras de cotovelos e joelhos, mas podem evoluir para lesões exofíticas bastante exuberantes, com vários centímetros de diâmetro e altura. Podem se desenvolver em outros locais de pressão, particularmente em calcanhares e superfícies plantares dos pés.
