Autoimmune pancreatitis is an increasingly recognized inflammatory type of subacute pancreatitis; two subtypes of autoimmune pancreatitis have been identified so far: the "lymphoplasmacytic" type 1 variant and the "neutrophilic" type 2 variant. Type 1 autoimmune pancreatitis represents the most common manifestation of IgG4-related disease, a fibro-inflammatory disorder characterized by elevated IgG4 levels in the serum and affected tissues. Type 2 autoimmune pancreatitis is a pancreas-specific disorder that frequently occurs in the context of inflammatory bowel diseases.

Background: Type 2 autoimmune pancreatitis is characterized by multiple or segmental strictures of the main pancreatic duct without upstream dilatation. We encountered a case of mass-forming type 2 autoimmune pancreatitis with upstream main pancreatic duct dilatation that was difficult to diagnose preoperatively using endoscopic ultrasound sonography-guided fine-needle aspiration cytology.
Case Presentation: A 58-year-old Japanese man presented with recurrent acute pancreatitis secondary to a 10-mm pancreatic head tumor.

Concurrent chronic kidney disease gradually progressed and chronic hemodialysis was introduced 2 years later.

Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is a rare and complex condition that can be difficult to identify due to its resemblance to malignancies. This case report presents a unique instance of AIP in a 9-year-old male patient who presented with painless jaundice and elevated liver function test results. His symptoms were persistent even after previous common bile duct stent placement, requiring additional investigation.
