Popis: Chronic renal failure (CRF) is responsible for several abnormalities of lipoprotein metabolism and represents an increased risk of atherosclerosis [1,2]. Hypertriglyceridemia is very often observed in patients suffering from terminal CRF, treated by hemodialysis or not, while plasma cholesterol is either normal or slightly elevated. Among the numerous risk factors presented by uremic patients, it is not easy to know precisely the role of hypertriglyceridemia. The general increase in all the triglyceride-rich lipoproteins is a consequence of their impaired metabolism.
