Abstract
A 3-year-old boy presented with a history of intermittent abdominal pain and vomiting from the age of 1 year. Raised serum amylase and lipase levels supported a diagnosis of acute pancreatitis. Subsequent investigation confirmed coeliac disease. This is the youngest patient to be reported with this combination.
