Abstract
There are multiple secondary causes of hyperlipidemia, including obstructive cholestasis. We present a patient case of a 72-year-old woman with controlled hyperlipidemia presenting for a routine primary care visit. Laboratory results showed marked hyperlipidemia. Subsequent evaluation revealed biliary obstruction resulting from pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
