Abstract
We present a patient with acute pancreatitis that was specially persistent from a biochemical viewpoint, derived from a duodenal sarcomatous tumor of immunoblastic type that narrowed the second duodenal segment for a length of about 8 centimeters. We discuss the possible role of tumoral neoformations in the production of pancreatitis due to increased intraluminal pressure distal to the Vater ampulla, or to occlusion of the Oddi sphincter or the Wirsung duct. We review the existent literature.
