Primary Hyperparathyroidism secondary to Parathyroid adenoma, rarely presents as acute pancreatitis. A 38-year-young male with a history of recurrent renal stones referred from a local center, presented to the emergency services, with a diagnosis of acute pancreatitis and bilateral renal stones. Laboratory evaluation showed an elevated calcium level, elevated PTH levels, low vitamin D, and low phosphorus levels. CT scan done outside was suggestive of acute pancreatitis along with bilateral renal calculi. USG neck and MIBI scan done as a part of hypercalcemia evaluation showed presence of a right parathyroid adenoma. Parathyroid adenoma was later removed, and calcium and parathyroid levels were normal on subsequent follow ups.
