[One case of severe burn complicated with severe acute pancreatitis characterized by hypoglycemia]

A 44 years old male patient suffered from flame burn of 20% total body surface area was admitted to our hospital on February 14th, 2018. On admission, his abdominal CT was not obviously abnormal. Eleven hours after burn, the patient had left upper abdominal pain, accompanied by reduction of urine output. Then he suffered from sudden hypotension and hypoglycemia. Acute pancreatitis was diagnosed by abdominal CT reexamination. Low glucose level was ameliorated slowly through positive rescue, and pancreatitis crisis progressed rapidly. The family members gave up rescue care, and patient discharged. The case indicates that physicians should pay attention to glucose levels of severe burn patients, and be cautious of appearance of postburn pancreatitis.
