A Case Report of Benign Pancreatic Hyperenzymemia (Gullo's Syndrome)
Copyright © 2020, Mehta et al..
Benign Pancreatic Hyperenzymemia or Gullo's Syndrome is a rare syndrome that has been identified relatively recently and is characterized by abnormally elevated serum pancreatic enzymes in the absence of any clinical or pathological evidence of pancreatic disease. It is usually discovered incidentally, occurs sporadically or as a familial form and remains a diagnosis of exclusion. Both amylase and lipase are elevated but can return to normal levels temporarily. We present an interesting case of benign pancreatic hyperenzymemia. This case highlights the importance of identifying this condition to avoid unnecessary testing and reassuring the patient of its benign nature.
