ABSTRACT
Familial combined hyperlipidemia is among the most frequent causes of primary dyslipidemia in Mexico. Its manifestations include hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia or the combination of both abnormalities. In spite of its high frequency, the proper diagnosis is rarely done. For this purpose, the measurement of a lipid profile is required in at least three first-degree relatives. The presence of familial combined hyperlipidemia in a family leads to the identification of other abnormal cases among them and the categorization as a high risk case for cardiovascular disease for the affected members. A critical review of the current literature in this field is presented in this paper. Prospective studies have confirmed the atherogenicity of the disease. Although two screenings of the whole genome has been completed, the responsible genes for this disorder have not been identified. Limitations for the characterization of the subjects as affected and the heterogeneity of the disease are among the possible explanations for these results. However, due to its high frequency, familial combined hyperlipidemia is a model of dyslipidemia that must be considered as a priority. It represents one of the greatest problems for the physicians involved in the treatment of dyslipidemic patients.
