Hypertriglyceridemic Acute Pancreatitis With Concomitant Retrocecal Appendicitis: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Hypertriglyceridemia‐induced acute pancreatitis and acute appendicitis are distinct clinical conditions rarely reported to occur concurrently. We present a case of hypertriglyceridemia‐induced pancreatitis characterized by clinical deterioration despite a decline in serum triglyceride levels.

ABSTRACT A 62‐year‐old man presented comatose with pH 6.88 and no ingestion history. A point‐of‐care lactate above 31 mmol/L with a laboratory lactate of 0.8 mmol/L revealed a lactate gap, diagnosing ethylene glycol poisoning despite a near‐normal osmolar gap. High‐dose continuous renal replacement therapy corrected the acidosis; he survived.
