Abstract (2. Language): 
Experience on medical treatment of hyperlipide-mia, which is a frequent metabolic derangement in transplant recipients, is limited. After it has been an¬nounced that lovastatin causes rh.abdomyolisis, the safety has also become a subject of discussion. Twenty-five cases of whom graft ages were > 9 monhts, creatinin levels were < 2 mgldl and following a diet of 6 months duration triglyceride levels (TG) were 2200 mgldl and/or total cholesterol (TC) were enrolled in this prospective study. Among them, 14 hyperlipidemic patients were given gemfibrozil 2x600 mgldfor 3 months; control group consisted of the ot¬her 11 patients. At the end of 3 months, TG decreased from 218±49 mgldl to 136 ± 35 TC from 238±22 mgldl to 206±20, LDL-C 138±24 mgldl to 125±17; HDL-C increased from 48±10 mgldl to 55 ±10. There was no significant change in the control group. No si¬de effect that required to cancel the treatment had be¬en observed during the study. In conclusion, gemfib-rozil is thought to be a safe and effective drug in the treatment of hyperlipidemia of renal allograft recipi¬ents.

Transplant alıcılarında sık görülen hiperlipidemi-nin ilaçla sağaltımı konusunda deneyimin sınırlı olması yanışım, lovastatinin rabdomiyolize yol açabil-diğinin bildirilmiş olması sağaltımın güvenilirliğini de tartışılu kılmıştır. Bu prospektif çalışmada greft yaşı > 9 ay ve kreatinin < 2 mgldl (176.8 mmollL) olup, 6 ay diyet sonrası trigliserid (TG) > 200 mgldl (2.26 mmol/L) ve/veya total kolesterol (TK) > 220 mgldl (5.68 mmol/L) olan 25 olgudan 14'üne 3 ay sü¬reyle 2x600 mg/gün dozunda gemfibrozil (GF) verilir¬ken, diğer ll'i kontrol (K) grubu olarak izlenmiştir. Üç ay sonunda GF grubunda TG 218149 mgldl (2.46±0.55 mmollLYden 136 ±35 mgldl (1.53 ± 0.39 mmollLYye TK 238 ± 22 mgldl (6.14 ± 0.56 mmollLYden 206 ±20 mgldl (5.32 ±0.51 mmollLYye LDL-K138 ± 24mgldl (3.56± 0.62 mmollLYden 125 ±17 mgldl (3.22 ± 0.43 mmollLYye düşerken, HDL -K 48 ±10 mgldl (1.24 ± 0.25 mmollLYden 55 ± 10 mgldl (1.42 ± 0.25 mmollLYye yükseldi. K grubunda ise bu parametrelerde anlamlı değişiklik olmadı. Sa¬ğaltımın kesilmesini gerektirir yan etki saptanmadı. Gemfibrozilin renal allogreft alıcılarında hiperlipide-mi sağaltımında etkin ve güvenilir olduğu düşünüldü.
