Secondary Hypertriglyceridemia Causing Recurrent Acute Pancreatitis with Normal Pancreatic Enzymes

Hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) is the third leading cause of acute pancreatitis (APs) worldwide which is invariably associated with elevated pancreatic enzyme levels. We present a case of HTG-induced recurrent AP with normal serum amylase and lipase levels in a patient of Syndrome Z.
