Abstract

Haemolysis is an uncommon complication of haemodialysis which can be serious. We herein report on three patients with kidney failure who developed acute pancreatitis due to mechanical haemolysis during a haemodialysis session. We also review the current literature and discuss putative etiopathogenic mechanisms.

Keywords: Acute pancreatitis; Haemodialysis; Haemolysis; Hémodialyse; Hémolyse; Pancréatite aiguë.
