title: [Recurrent pancreatitis and hyperlipemia. Clinical case and review of the literature].
abstract: It is discussed the case of a patient, a 45 year old female, who suffered two episodes of acute pancreatitis in one year. This patient is not an alcoholic but diabetic, atherosclerotic and with type IV hyperlipemia. It is presented some reports of the medical literature on the matter and some possible pathogenic mechanisms to explain the pancreatitis associated to hyperlipemia. In this particular case the authors do not consider the hyperlipemia secondary to a pancreatitis but a precipitating factor.
