Abstract

This article provides an overview of the different types of familial hyperlipidaemia that may be encountered in clinical practice, namely, familial combined hyperlipidaemia (FCH) and familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH). Owing to their complexity, apolipoprotein disorders will not be covered. The underlying causes and clinical consequences of FCH and FH will be discussed, in addition to management strategies that can be implemented to mitigate against such consequences of familial hyperlipidaemia.
