Hypertriglyceridemia is a well-recognized etiology of acute pancreatitis,and the incidence of hypertriglyceridemic acute pancreatitis(HTG-AP)has increased in frequency worldwide in response to lifestyle changes.It is crucial to identify hypertriglyceridemia as the cause of pancreatitis and initiate appropriate treatment.Insulin treatment produces effective lowering of triglycerides,but in our opinion,non-diabetic patients with HTG-AP require separate consideration to avoid hypoglycemia.
