pancreatitis, hypertriglyceridemia, plasmapheresisAbstract
Introduction: Globally, acute pancreatitis has a high incidence and a large. Among its numerous causes, the most frequent are obstructions of the bile duct, alcohol consumption and hypertriglyceridemia (triglyceride serum levels higher than 1000 mg/dL). Hypertriglyceridemia accounts for 1% to 7% of the total cases.
Methodology: We present a case of acute pancreatitis secondary to severe hypertriglyceridemia which was managed with plasmapheresis. We include a review of the literature on the conditions, indications and advantages of this therapeutic strategy.
Conclusions: In selected cases, plasmapheresis is a safe and effective management strategy for patients with acute pancreatitis secondary to severe hypertriglyceridemia
