Abstract:
The theory of the pathogenetic role of lipoperoxides in atherosclerosis and thrombosis is very topical at present. It unifies the theory on the role of free oxygen radicals with the theory of damage of the vascular wall and with the theory of impaired lipid metabolism. It makes possible also a new interpretation of known risk factors. It is also based on the most recent results of molecular biology (role of monocytes-macrophages).
