Fulltext PDFAlcohol abuse has long been acknowledged as a pressing public health issue. Recent data points to a worrying trend of spike in excessive alcohol consumption amongst young adults who as a result are prone to suffer its harmful effects more frequently.[1] Severe alcohol addiction is accounted to around 4% of fatalities globally by disrupting physiology and affecting multiple organ systems.[2] Here we present one such case with a trifecta of pancreatitis, hepatic cirrhosis, and hypertriglyceridemia, in a male who is only 21 years old with no previous medical history. This case report intends to draw attention to the notably increase in growth of end-organ failures among people in this age range. Therefore, recognizing the gravity of this issue, it is crucial to prioritize prevention.
