Spontaneous tumor lysis syndrome (STLS) secondary to metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma is a rare clinical phenomenon. An 86-year-old woman with a history of pancreatic cysts presented to the emergency department with progressive fatigue, transaminitis, elevated lactate dehydrogenase, and acute kidney injury of unclear etiology. Abdominal imaging and celiac lymph node biopsy were consistent with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Her clinical status deteriorated requiring intensive care unit transfer, and her laboratory results were found to be consistent with STLS. Despite treatment, she entered multisystem organ failure and died shortly after. This case adds to the literature of STLS in pancreatic adenocarcinomas.
