Abstract
Acute pancreatitis is an inflammatory process with multiple etiologies, dominated by biliary lithiasis and alcohol consumption. Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) with subsequent hypercalcemia as a cause of acute pancreatitis is very rare and frequently overlooked and serum calcium level plays a key role in the pathogenesis. Here we present a case of 53 years old female with hypercalcemic acute pancreatitis resulted from primary hyperparathyroidism caused by a left parathyroid adenoma.
