Hiperlipidemija
Also known as: Povišena razina masnoća u krvi
Hiperlipidemija je abnormalno povišena razina masnoća (triglicerida i/ili kolesterola) u krvi. Može nastati nakon nedavnog obroka ili odražavati endokrinu bolest, pasminsku predispoziciju ili primarni poremećaj metabolizma lipida. Trajno povišenje može izazvati pankreatitis, masnu jetru, grčeve i promjene na očima. Šnaucer i neke druge pasmine izrazito su predisponirane za primarne oblike.
