title: [Plasma lipid spectrum in acute leukemia].
abstract: The examination of 54 patients with acute leukemia (AL) found out ambiguous changes in plasmic lipid spectrum typical for elderly patients. Hypocholesterolemia occurred more frequently in nonlymphoblastic AL, is accompanied with severe anemia and infectious-septic complications. Hyperlipidemia was more common among senile AL patients with coronary heart disease which contributed to circulatory failure, cardiac arrhythmia, pneumonia complications and eventually to shorter survival of AL patients.
