Both hyperlipidemia and hyperglycemia are significant components of metabolic syndrome and can elevate the risk of pancreatitis. Acute pancreatitis is a serious inflammatory disease that can be life-threatening and may be triggered by various factors, including hyperlipidemia. In conclusion, there appears to be a potential link between xanthoma, hyperlipidemia, and acute pancreatitis, which seem to be distinct diseases. By analyzing the diagnostic and treatment processes for this patient, we found that early identification and intervention in xanthoma patients are crucial. This approach not only aids in controlling the progression of xanthoma but also helps prevent a range of serious complications associated with hyperlipidemia, such as acute pancreatitis. Ultimately, this reduces the impact of the disease on health and enhances the quality of life and survival rates for patients.Keywords: xanthoma, pancreatitis, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, case |
