The novel coronavirus disease has caused an ongoing pandemic since the end of 2019. It is a transmissible infection caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The highly infectious nature of this illness is based mostly throughout the respiratory tract. However, this virus can affect all systems of the human body, such as the gastrointestinal tract. We report a case of pancreatic pseudocysts as a late manifestation of COVID-19.

Background: Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a leading cause of cancer mortality, often diagnosed at advanced stages. Acute pancreatitis (AP), particularly idiopathic cases, may serve as an early indicator of PC.
Objective: This multicenter cohort study investigated the incidence of PC before and after an AP episode, focusing on idiopathic AP and the role of pseudocysts as potential early markers for PC development.

Rationale: Pancreaticopleural fistula (PPF) is an infrequent etiology of pleural effusion, characterized by nonspecific thoracic symptoms, which often leads to misdiagnosis and subsequent severe complications. Consequently, early diagnosis is crucial for effective management and the prevention of adverse outcomes. This report presents a rare case of PPF causing bilateral pleural effusions, aiming to enhance clinical recognition of this condition.

Acute pancreatitis in children is a rare condition; however, the incidence of this acute condition has been increasing over the past few decades. In most cases, acute pancreatitis does not cause severe complications in children, but in some cases, it can be complicated by fluid accumulation, fistulas and vascular pathologies, but the most common complication remains the formation of pseudocysts. This article describes the clinical case of a 11-year-old girl from Lithuania, which effectively illustrates a rare condition in children-acute pancreatitis and its developed complication-the formation of a pancreatic pseudocyst.

Hereditary pancreatitis (HP) is an unusual form of pancreatitis inherited as an autosomal dominant disorder. Patients typically present with recurrent acute pancreatitis-like symptoms that eventually progress to chronic pancreatitis, resulting in pancreatic exocrine insufficiency or diabetes mellitus, and a high risk of developing pancreatic cancer. As such, early diagnosis is crucial.
