Recurrent hypertriglyceridemic pancreatitis.: Exceptional evolutionary form
Pancreatitis hipertrigliceridémica recurrente.: Excepcional forma evolutiva
Resumen:
Acute metabolic pancreatitis due to hypertriglyceridemia is an exceptional entity. The risk of developing it is linked to triglyceride levels greater than 500 mg / dl; no direct correlation between the level of these with severity or complications. The clinical case of a patient with recurrent hypertriglyceridemic acute pancreatitis is analyzed; thetherapeutic complexity of its management and the high mortality risk of this type of pancreatitis.
La pancreatitis aguda metabólica por hipertrigliceridemia es una entidad excepcional. El riesgo de desarrollarla se vincula con niveles de triglicéridos mayores de 500 mg/dl; sin correlación directa entre el nivel con la gravedad ni las complicaciones. Se analiza el caso clínico de un paciente con pancreatitis aguda hipertrigliceridémica recurrente; la complejidad terapéutica de su manejo y el alto riesgo de mortalidad de este tipo de pancreatitis.
