    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Abdominal Surgery

    Background:

    • Acute pancreatitis is a common gastrointestinal condition.
    • Epigastric lumps can arise as complications of acute pancreatitis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the incidence and types of epigastric lumps in acute pancreatitis.
    • To highlight the diagnostic and management challenges posed by these lumps.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 55 cases of acute pancreatitis.
    • Documentation of epigastric lump presence, type, and clinical course.

    Main Results:

    • An epigastric lump was identified in 24 out of 55 patients (43.6%).
    • Phlegmon was the most common lump (18 cases), followed by pseudocysts (5 cases) and abscess (1 case).

    Conclusions:

    • Epigastric lumps are a significant complication of acute pancreatitis.
    • These lumps require careful diagnostic evaluation and tailored management.
    • Close clinical monitoring is essential for guiding treatment decisions.
