Popis: The association between acute pancreatitis and primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) has widely been reported in literature, but a causal relationship remains controversial. This case report is about a patient admitted with acute pancreatitis as a first manifestation of a parathyroid adenoma. The initial medical management followed by surgery permitted a total recuperation. The purpose of this paper is to keep in mind the metabolic etiology, by evaluating calcium and parathyroid hormone (PTH) in the differential diagnosis of non-biliary, non-alcoholic acute pancreatitis.
