title: [Serum lipids and gamma-glutamyltransferase in acute pancreatitis].
abstract: An obvious hypertriglyceridemia was detected in 22.8% of the 57 investigated patients with acute pancreatitis. A type IV or V hyperlipoproteinemia could precede the onset of pancreatitis but the level of serum triglyceride greatly increased during the acute attack and had a tendency towards normalization later on. Increased serum gamma-glutamyltransferase activity was found to be especially high in alcoholic patients and in those presenting biliary disease.
