| الوصف: | Chronic pancreatitis has a fibro-inflammatory subtype called autoimmune pancreatitis. A combination of imaging tests, including a CT scan and pancreatography, lab tests that check for IgG4 and/or autoantibodies, histological analysis, and a favourable response to corticosteroid treatment are used for diagnosis. Hereby we present a case of a young boy who presented to our hospital with recurrent abdominal pain and on further investigation was found to have elevated levels of IgG4 as well as a developmental abnormality of pancreatic duct known as pancreatic divisum. |
