Acute pancreatitis due to Ascariasis in a child
Mritunjay Kumar, Rashmi Kumari
Abstract :
– A rare and unrecognised complication of ascariasis in children is acute pancreatitis. Although usually asymptomatic, ascariasis can lead to biliary or intestinal obstruction and very rarely obstruction of the main pancreatic duct due to its smaller lumen. Here we report a case of ascariasis in the main pancreatic duct, which is not a common site, presenting as acute pancreatitis and recovering uneventfully with conservative management.
