Background and Design.- The risk factors in atherosclerotic vascular disease may be different from the ones in ischemic heart diseases. In our study, the levels of lipids and lipoproteins in 100 patients with atherosclerotic vascular disease who were candidate for surgery were evaluated.
Results.- When average values were considered, the major finding was that total cholesterol levels were higher and apolipoprotein B levels were lower than normal.
Conclusion.- We think that antilipidemic treatment is effective in preventing development and slowing the progress of atherosclerotic vascular disease.
