    Abstract:
    The hyperlipidemia may be influenced with both the conservative and surgical management. Starting from 1987, authors use Buchwald's (1963) partial ileal bypass method. They report on their experience with 16-membered total of patients. In majority of patients, the PIB was auxiliary operation mostly in relation with vascular reconstructive surgery. No lethality case or serious complication has been stated. All patients showed the substantial decrease in cholesterol and triglyceride levels, these being normalized in majority of patients. Authors are discussing PIB indications. The suggestion is made that this is the most effective of known measures in attempt to achieve a continual decrease in lipids without the serious discomfort for a patient.
