The prevalence of cardiovascular disease is projected to be 38.7% for the USA in 2020, including coronary heart disease at 8.6% and stroke at 3.6%. In South Africa (SA), premature deaths due to heart and blood vessel diseases in people of working age (35 - 64 years) have been predicted to increase by 41% between 2007 and 2030, with enormous negative economic impact. Atherosclerosis underlies much of the pathogenesis, which involves risk factors including dyslipidaemia. Secondary dyslipidaemia associated with diabetes mellitus, hypothyroidism, chronic renal disease, cholestasis, nephrotic syndrome, alcohol excess, drugs such as thiazide diuretics and antiretroviral agents may respond to treatment of underlying causes, but residual dyslipidaemia may in such cases be due to primary disorders of metabolism. Primary dyslipidaemias are uncommon and to a large extent underdiagnosed, especially in the black population of SA, reflecting a lack of clinical and laboratory awareness or expertise. Specific diagnoses enable effective intervention in the patients as well as the families.
