    Area of Science:

    • Medicine
    • Pulmonology
    • Gastroenterology

    Background:

    • Pleural effusion is excess fluid in the space between the lungs and chest wall.
    • The causes of pleural effusion are diverse, and some cases remain unexplained.
    • Pancreatitis is inflammation of the pancreas, often associated with abdominal pain.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe two cases of pleural effusion linked to pancreatitis.
    • To suggest pancreatitis as a potential cause for unexplained pleural effusions.

    Main Methods:

    • Case report analysis.
    • Review of patient medical histories and diagnostic findings.

    Main Results:

    • Two patients presented with pleural effusion.
    • Both cases were associated with pancreatitis resulting from trauma.
    • No other cause for the pleural effusion was identified in these cases.

    Conclusions:

    • Traumatic pancreatitis can lead to pleural effusion.
    • Clinicians should investigate pancreatitis in patients with unexplained pleural effusion.
