Article Synopsis
- Acute pancreatitis is a rare but serious complication that can occur after oesophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD), even though it’s more usually caused by other factors.
- The case of a 46-year-old woman who developed the condition following a procedure to remove duodenal polyps illustrates this risk; she experienced severe abdominal pain and elevated lipase levels afterward.
- Clinicians should be vigilant about this potential complication, particularly when patients do not exhibit common risk factors for pancreatitis.
