Diabetes mellitus is associated with a three to fourfold increased risk for coronary artery disease and diabetic patients frequently have an abnormal plasma lipid profile. Lately, lipoprotein (a) has received attention as an important independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. This lipoprotein is elevated in patients with type II diabetes mellitus and there may be an association between the metabolic control of these subjects and its levels. In this review the main features of lipoprotein (a) and its relationship to the fibrinolytic system and atherosclerosis are reviewed.
