概要
A 27 year-old pregnant woman was referred to our department with nausea, abdominal pain, and hypertriglyceridemia (5500 mg/dl). A diagnosis of acute gestational hyperlipidemic pancreatitis was made. She had no history of nongestational hyperlipidemia. Subsequently, she underwent pancreatic drainage and Caesarean section. Our experience suggests that gestational hyperlipidemic pancreatitis may occur in pregnant women without nongestational hyperlipidemia. Intensive monitoring of serum lipid levels is mandatory when managing pregnant women who develop or show gestational worsening of hypertriglyceridemia.
