Article Synopsis
- A 91-year-old woman was diagnosed with localized acute pancreatitis after experiencing symptoms like vomiting and epigastric pain, with blood tests showing elevated pancreatic enzymes.
- Imaging revealed inflammation confined to the pancreatic head, with atrophy in other regions of the pancreas and dilatation of the pancreatic duct.
- Age-related changes in the pancreas complicate the diagnosis of pancreatitis and necessitate considering it as a possible cause of abdominal pain in older adults, even when other causes aren’t evident.
