Obesity, particularly abdominal obesity, is the main risk factor for metabolic syndrome. However, some non-obese individuals are metabolically abnormal and therefore probably have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. The present review paper aims to describe the main characteristics of the metabolically obese normal-weight (MONW) syndrome, analyse its etiopathogenesis and pathophysiology and, finally, assess its prevalence in various populations.L’obésité, notamment abdominale, est le facteur de risque principal du syndrome métabolique. Cependant, il existe manifestement des personnes non obèses qui sont métaboliquement anormales et, donc, vraisemblablement exposées à un risque accru de complications cardiovasculaires.
