Abstract

A case study of a 39-year-old woman with elevated lipid levels is presented who is primarily concerned with her mother's history of breast cancer and risk of developing coronary heart disease. Recommendations for her, her long-term risk for coronary heart disease and evidence for lipid-lowering therapies are discussed.
