摘要
Profound hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) is uncommon and often associated with acute pancreatitis. HTG may result from congenital disorders, metabolic diseases, and medications among other causes. The acute management of HTG is not clear, although the combination of insulin and heparin has shown efficacy. Octreotide, a somatostatin analog, has been mildly efficacious in pancreatitis. We present a case of profound HTG and pancreatitis-treated combination Of insulin and heparin with octreotide and compare this to previous reports.
