摘要
To support the evidence of plasma exchange's ability to rapidly lower serum TG levels and provide upcoming research opportunities for evaluating the long-term effects of this treatment, we present the case of a 35-year-old female who was admitted for Hypertriglyceridemia-induced Pancreatitis (HTGP). She underwent Therapeutic Plasma Exchange (TPE) using Spectra Optia Apheresis System on an emergency basis. The patient had a remarkable reduction of serum Triglycerides (TG) from 3953 to 291 mg/dl, which was life saving. On subsequent follow-up the serum TG levels remained constant post-TPE with conservative treatment only. Therapeutic plasma exchange deserves an upgrade in ASFA categorization for the indication in Hypertriglyceridemia induced Pancreatitis.
