Core Tip

Core Tip: Primary hyperparathyroidism-induced acute pancreatitis during pregnancy is a rare condition and can cause maternal and fetal adverse outcomes. Therefore, early diagnosis and appropriate therapeutic intervention are essential. This article comments on the recent systematic review of this condition published in the World Journal of Gastroenterology. In addition, multiple endocrine neoplasia screening is recommended for the better prognosis of the cases.
