Hypercholesterolemia has been identified as a major risk in the development of premature atherosclerosis and in its clinical sequelae is similar to coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction. It is generally agreed that low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels above 130 mg/dl are associated with a very high incidence of coronary heart disease (1). Recently scientists found that drastic reductions of LDL by diet, exercise, and drugs can stop the progression of coronary stenoses or even induce regression of atherosclerotic lesions (2). However, a sufficient reduction of LDL-cholesterol can not be attained by conservative treatment alone in many instances, such as familiar hypercholesterolemia, and further extracorporeal LDL removal by plasmaphe-
