title: [Metabolic risk factors in heart surgery].
abstract: Accelerated coronary atherosclerosis is a common complication following coronary angioplasty, coronary venous bypass grafting, and heart transplantation. Since dyslipoproteinemias are a major risk for atherosclerotic lesions, a consequent and effective lipid-regulating treatment is mandatory in these patients. The CLAS-findings are an impressive documentation for the beneficial effects of a substantial lipid-regulating treatment on progression and even repression of atherosclerosis.
