title: [Controversial problems in the nosology of atherosclerosis].
abstract: Atherogenic dislipoproteinemia and the disturbances of vascular permeability are considered to be the main etiologic factors of atherosclerosis according to the current concept of the pathogenesis of this disease. The authors suggest that the following nozological forms of atherosclerosis should be distinguished (basing on relevant morphological features): classical (Anichkow-Khalatov disease), autoimmune, genetically predetermined, and symptomatic secondary atherosclerosis. Each form has its special leading pathogenetic link and particular morphologic development. This requires a differential approach to the choice of treatment and prevention in each individual case of atherosclerosis.
