Patients kept on haemodialysis because of chronic renal insufficiency were investigated for lipid profiles. The cholesterol level did not differ as compared to the age-matched control, while the triglyceride level was elevated. The correlation was found between the lipid parameters, period spent in dialysis programme and level of serum creatinine and urea. In renal failures of different origin the lipid levels are in relationship with the underlying disorders.
