Abstract
Nowadays the problem of average increasing number of cases of peoplesuffering from inveterate non communicable diseases is discussed much. Metabolic syndrome (MS) has already reached proportions of non communicable epidemic, “epidemic of XXI c.” MS represents a combination of cardiovascular risk determinants such as obesity, insulin resistance and lipid abnormalities such as hypertriglyceridemia, increased free fatty acids, low high-density-cholesterol and hypertensionWe can defi nitely call it a “civilization disease”. Metabolic conditions giving rise to pancreatitis account for 5%-10% of cases. The causes include hypertriglyceridemia, diabetes mellitus, porphyria. In cases of metabolic pancreatitis, apart from the standard routine management of pancreatitis, careful management of the underlying metabolic abnormalities is of paramount importance. Evaluation of pancreatic steatosis should be considered for patients with pancreatitis associated with metabolic syndrome. Metformin is the drug of choice to relieve from the main symptoms of MS.
