Acute Pancreatitis Complicated by Sheehan's Syndrome: A Case Report and Literature Review.

A 44-year-old woman was transferred to the ICU of the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University for 2 days of persistent epigastric pain and 7 hours of unconsciousness. Her admission diagnosis was severe acute necrotizing pancreatitis (hypertriglyceridemia type) with multiple organ dysfunctions. The results of CT revealed a small area of necrotizing pancreatitis, which was not consistent with the severe clinical manifestations. Considering lack of hair and history of postpartum hemorrhage, hormone examination was carried out. According to the results of the examination, she was further diagnosed as Sheehan's syndrome and pituitary crisis. After hormone replacement therapy, her condition improved rapidly.
