Patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) have a high risk for premature death. Supravalvular aortic stenosis (SVAS) is a common and the feature lesion of the aortic root in HoFH. The relation between SVAS and the risk of premature death in patients with HoFH has not been fully investigated. The present study analysis included 97 HoFH patients with mean age of 14.7 (years) from the Genetic and Imaging of Familial Hypercholesterolemia in Han Nationality Study. During the median (±SD) follow-up 4.0 (±4.0) years, 40 (41.2%) participants had SVAS and 17 (17.5%) participants experienced death. The proportion of premature death in the non-SVAS and SVAS group was 7.0% and 32.5%, respectively. Compared with the non-SVAS group, SVAS group cumulative survival was lower in the HoFH (log-rank test, p
