Hypertriglyceridemia independent propofol-induced pancreatitis.
CONTEXT Propofol can cause acute pancreatitis related to hypertriglyceridemia, however, other mechanisms may also exist. CASE REPORT A 71-year-old male on propofol infusion in the intensive care setting, developed acute pancreatitis as confirmed biochemically and by imaging. He did not have any elevation of triglycerides and on propofol re-challenge, had recurrence of pancreatitis with the ab...
متن کاملPancreatitis Induced by Hypertriglyceridemia
The detailed pathophysiological mechanisms involved in the progression of hypertriglyceridemia to pancreatitis are little known. Using an animal model we have found that the earliest detectable changes caused by hypertriglyceridemia consist of a selective degeneration of the mitochondria in the exocrine pancreas cells. This supports the view that an excess of free fatty acids deranges the mitoc...
متن کاملPEG-asparaginase induced severe hypertriglyceridemia.
Asparaginase (ASP) is an effective chemotherapy agent extensively used in children with acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL). There has been a recent interest in using ASP in adults with ALL, particularly the less toxic pegylated (PEG) formulation. Hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) is a rare complication of PEG-ASP therapy. We report two cases of obese patients who developed severe HTG after receiving PEG...
متن کاملClevidipine for hypertensive emergency.
Hypertensive emergency, is the most severe presentation of arterial hypertension, having high morbidity-mortality. Clevidipine is a calcium channel blocker. Its pharmacokinetics is favorable to use for hypertensive emergencies, rendering this drug a promising alternative to the restricted therapeutic armamentarium available both in the emergency room and intensive care unit. In this review we d...
متن کاملFamilial hypertriglyceridemia-induced acute necrotizing pancreatitis: A case report
Acutepancreatitis can infrequently be a life-threatening complication of hypertriglyceridemia. Rarely, hypertriglyceridemia can originate from an inborn genetic error in lipoproteins metabolism. This condition can be manifested by very high serum triglyceride levels (>1000 mg/dl) and a more severe and lethal form of pancreatitis. Here, we present a case of acute pancreatic which was found out t...
