Hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) is infrequent but an established etiology that can trigger recurrent episodes of acute pancreatitis. The risk of acute pancreatitis is significant when serum triglycerides levels surpass >1000 mg/dL. Although the severity of HTG-induced acute pancreatitis (HTG-AP) may be correlated to higher HTG levels in the early stages, the overall clinical outcomes are similar to other aetiologies. The initial management also differs from the routine recommendations with additional diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. This retrospective case series includes a 4-year experience with HTG-AP at our facility and a brief literature review.
