BACKGROUND: Pegylated asparaginase may induce prolonged hypertriglyceridemia. To date, there is no standard management of this complication. Here, we present a case report of pegylated asparaginase-induced hypertriglyceridemia and hepatotoxicity successfully treated with continuous intravenous infusion of insulin and heparin.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 51-year-old male patient with lymphoid blast crisis of chronic myelogenous leukemia was treated with pegylated asparaginase. The patient developed severe hypertriglyceridemia. Supportive therapy with low-fat diet, fibric acids, and omega-3 fatty acids was not successful, and later, the patient developed high-grade hepatotoxicity. Like hypertriglyceridemia-induced pancreatitis, continuous intravenous infusion of insulin and heparin was initiated. The level of triglyceride and cholesterol decreased rapidly within 4 days.
CONCLUSION: In case of severe pegylated asparaginase-induced hypertriglyceridemia, continuous intravenous infusion of insulin and heparin can reduce rapidly and safely the triglyceride level. Controlled trials are needed to address this important issue.
