Hyperlipoproteinemia in the Pathogenesis of Acute Pancreatitis

  • Chapter
Acute Pancreatitis

Abstract

For 120 years it has been well known that attacks of acute pancreatitis are occasionally associated with marked hyperlipoproteinemia [1]. Pancreatitis in such cases is usually of the relapsing type. The serum is of milky turbidity and the concentration of triglycerides is extremely high, usually more than 30 mmol/l. Attacks of this type of pancreatitis appear characteristically in early age, often in early childhood. This is in contrast to the more common type of relapsing pancreatitis of other origin, which generally affects the middle-aged and seldomly occurs in early life.
