Ten patients with familial hypercholesterolaemia were subjected to partial ileal by-pass surgery. Plasma cholesterol fell by 41 and 38% and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol by 51 and 46% after six and 18 months respectively. High-density and very low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and plasma triglycerides were unaffected. Alanine aminotransferase increased transiently in half of the patients. Diarrhoea and slight steatorrhoea troubled most of the patients for the duration of 18 months' period of observation. Other long-term side effects were slight but significant increase in the renal excretion of oxalic acid and reduction in the intestinal absorption of calcium. The study shows that this operation has metabolic side-effects that warrant continued medical care of these patients. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
