Gestational hyperlipidemic pancreatitis is an uncommon complication of pregnancy that incurs a high risk of morbidity and mortality of both maternal and fetal patients.We described the response of continous renal replacement therapy in a woman with extreme gestational hyperlipidemia and severe pancreatitis.Five consecutive plasma exchanges didn’t lead to a remarkable reduction(10.4% and 4.8%,for the first and fourth times,respectively) at triglyceride levels as the literatures have reported,which reveals that plasma exchange and continous veno-venous heamofiltration may be importment,instead of crucial methods in dealing with gestational hyperlipidemic pancreatitis.Abstract:SUMM ARY Gestational hyperlipidem ic pancreatitis is an uncommon complication of pregnancy that in-curs a high risk ofmorbid ity and mortality of both maternal and fetal patients.W e described the response of continous renal replacement therapy in a woman with extreme gestational hyperlipidem ia and severe pancreatitis.Five consecutive plasma exchanges d idn’t lead to a remarkable reduction(10.4% and 4.8%,for the first and fourth times,respectively) at triglyceride levels as the literatures have reported,which reveals that plasma exchange and continous veno-venous heamofiltration may be importment,in-stead of crucialmethods in dealing with gestational hyperlipidem ic pancreatitis.
