RESUMO
Hypertriglyceridemia is the third cause of acute pancreatitis after lithiasis and alcohol. When triglycerides are >2000 mg/dL the risk increases to 20%. Acute pancreatitis is an important cause of morbidity in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), especially in those treated with lamivudine, due to hypertriglyceridemia.
