Abstract
Background and Aims : Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is one of the main causes of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. Due to lack of research and systematic patient search, exact prevalence of FH in Lithuania is unknown. There are also no recommendations for pediatric or familial screening in Lithuania.

The aim of this study was to review the distribution of screened FH patients by age and gender.
