Abstract

Acute pancreatitis is the inflammation of the pancreas that is most commonly caused by gallstones or alcohol in adults. Other less likely causes are autoimmune, hypercalcemia, hypertriglyceridemia, scorpion sting, trauma, idiopathic, post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), or drug-induced. Our patient is a 72-year-old woman with a past medical history of hypertension (on hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg, amlodipine 10 mg, and losartan 100 mg), chronic hypoxic respiratory failure, and previous deep vein thrombosis
