Abstract:
Gastrointestinal bezoars often occur as a complication of previous gastric surgery or in patients with altered gastrointestinal motility. Complications associated with gastrointestinal bezoars include perforation, peritonitis, protein-losing enteropathy, and acute appendicitis. Acute pancreatitis secondary to a duodenal bezoar is rare, and few studies have reported this complication. We report a case of acute pancreatitis and subsequent duodenal obstruction caused by a large duodenal phytobezoar.

Chronic Pancreatitis I: Introduction
Pancreatitis is the inflammation of the pancreas, which occurs when the immune system becomes active and causes swelling, pain, and disruptions in organ function. Pancreatitis can manifest as either an acute or chronic condition.

Acute Pancreatitis I: Introduction
Acute pancreatitis is characterized by rapid inflammation of the pancreas, often caused by factors like gallstone blockage or excessive alcohol consumption. Chronic pancreatitis, on the other hand, is a slow, progressive inflammation that may result from long-term alcohol abuse, obstructions in the pancreatic duct, or genetic factors.
The causes of acute pancreatitis include:
