Abstrakt: Hyperlipidemia in pregnancy has grave complications; lipid levels in pregnancy are influenced by genetic and hormonal factors, primarily due to estrogen. Here, we present a case of acute pancreatitis with hypertriglyceridemia presenting during the second trimester of pregnancy. We also discuss the management issues of this entity during pregnancy.
