Serum lipids and their lipoprotein fractions were measured in 16 nephrotic syndrome patients. All component of lipids and beta-lipoprotein fractions (LDL) showed an increase in all uncomplicated patients. The increase in serum lipids were inversely proportional to the albumen level in these patients. In 3 patients, lipids and beta-lipoprotein fractions returned to near normal after treatment, the proteinuria diminished and serum albumen became normal. Most of these patients did not need any treatment for hyperlipidemia.
