A case of hyperamylasemia produced outside the pancreas and of exceptional origin, is presented. The place of origin is an ovarian carcinoma whose first manifestation was acute abdominal pain. The blood level of amylase was slightly increased mainly in its salivary fraction detected by the chromogenic/inhibition technique. This level, followed the tumor evolution and decreased in parallel to the tumor's response treatment.
