We study the well-posedness of triply nonlinear degenerate elliptic-parabolic-hyperbolic problem $$ b(u)_t - {\rm div} \tilde{\mathfrak a}(u,\nabla\phi(u))+\psi(u)=f, \quad u|_{t=0}=u_0 $$ in a bounded domain with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. The nonlinearities $b,\phi$ and $\psi$ are supposed to be continuous non-decreasing, and the nonlinearity $\tilde{\mathfrak a}$ falls within the Leray-Lions framework. Some restrictions are imposed on the dependence of $\tilde{\mathfrak a}(u,\nabla\phi(u))$ on $u$ and also on the set where $\phi$ degenerates. A model case is $\tilde{\mathfrak a}(u,\nabla\phi(u)) =\tilde{\mathfrak{f}}(b(u),\psi(u),\phi(u))+k(u)\mathfrak{a}_0(\nabla\phi(u)),$ with $\phi$ which is strictly increasing except on a locally finite number of segments, and $\mathfrak{a}_0$ which is of the Leray-Lions kind. We are interested in existence, uniqueness and stability of entropy solutions. If $b=\mathrm{Id}$, we obtain a general continuous dependence result on data $u_0,f$ and nonlinearities $b,\psi,\phi,\tilde{\mathfrak{a}}$. Similar result is shown for the degenerate elliptic problem which corresponds to the case of $b\equiv 0$ and general non-decreasing surjective $\psi$. Existence, uniqueness and continuous dependence on data $u_0,f$ are shown when $[b+\psi](\R)=\R$ and $\phi\circ [b+\psi]^{-1}$ is continuous.
