Retrospective Analysis of Long-term Lipid Apheresis at a Single Center
Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, 11/05/09
Koziolek MJ et al. – Classical (diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension, and smoking history), as well as novel risk factors (cGFR < 60 mL/min, statin withdrawal, mixed hyperlipoproteinemia, and elevated lipoprotein (a)) were associated with an elevated risk for MACE. All applied methods had comparable effects. All lipid apheresis methods proved to be safe and suitable for long–term treatment. The present data demonstrate that treatment with lipid apheresis is very effective and leads to long–term reduction in cardiovascular mortality and morbidity.
