Abstract

Dyslipidemias are very common health problem in modern society, over 60% of all people, and can be diagnosed in young. High total cholesterol and LDL-C level seen in young people could be a sign of familiar hypercholesterolemia or familiar hyperlipidemia, but what is most important, should cause therapeutic procedure to reduce cardiovascular risk. High cholesterol level people usually have thicker intima-media complex, which is independent risk for stroke and myocardial infarction. Statins treatment familiar dyslipidemias reduces this risk. It seems that first estimation of lipids level shouldn’t be left for 4 decade, especially as in men from this group myocardial infarction becomes more popular.
