摘要
Hypertriglyceridaemia is a well known risk factor for acute pancreatitis. Hypertriglyceridaemia may be primary in origin or secondary to alcohol abuse, diabetes mellitus, pregnancy or use of drugs. In this case report, the cause of acute pancreatitis was tamoxifen. We report on a patient with tamoxifen-induced acute pancreatitis and hypertriglyceridaemia who was successfully treated with insulin infusion and long-term gemfibrozil.
