%X hypertriglyceridemia (htg) is a potential cause of acute pancreatitis (ap), especially when its value is higher than 1.000 mg/dl. different therapeutic measures have been proposed for patients with ap secondary to htg, including the one that seems to be more effective: plasmapheresis. we report the case of a patient with severe htg (triglycerides 6.480 mg/dl) that suffered from ap, and had favorable evolution with plasmapheresis.
