Peripartum Severe Acute Pancreatitis with Rare Complications: Case Report and Review of Literature.

Peripartum pancreatitis is a rare clinical condition that occurs usually in the third trimester of pregnancy. Pancreatitis is usually secondary to gallstones, and it can lead to life-threatening and rare complications. We report a case of necrotizing postpartum pancreatitis that developed abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) in early course, posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES), and splanchnic and extrasplanchnic thrombosis later on.
