Abstract
Introduction: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) mainly causes pulmonary disease. However, extrapulmonary manifestations, which affect the gastrointestinal tract and hepatobiliary system, have been reported. Case Presentation: Here we reported a 4-year-old boy with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and abdominal pain who had acute necrotic pancreatitis secondary to COVID-19. Conclusions: According to the COVID-19 epidemic, if drug-induced pancreatitis is ruled out, viral causes, especially COVID-19, should be considered.
期刊介绍：
International Journal of Cancer Management (IJCM) publishes peer-reviewed original studies and reviews on cancer etiology, epidemiology and risk factors, novel approach to cancer management including prevention, diagnosis, surgery, radiotherapy, medical oncology, and issues regarding cancer survivorship and palliative care. The scope spans the spectrum of cancer research from the laboratory to the clinic, with special emphasis on translational cancer research that bridge the laboratory and clinic. We also consider original case reports that expand clinical cancer knowledge and convey important best practice messages.
