Abstract
Lethal necrotizing pancreatitis postpartum due to primary hyperparathyroidism caused by a parathyroid adenoma can be considered as a rarity. Due to the unspecific clinical signs and uncommonness this disorder may be overseen very easily. The reported case illustrates the very importance of early diagnosis of this endocrine disorder in pregnancy in order to avoid a lethal course.
