Abstract:
Painful acute pancreatitis masking pancreatic carcinoma and painless acute pancreatitis with shock or coma as leading symptoms have been described before. We report a first case of almost-painless pancreatitis mimicking pancreatic carcinoma with spontaneous normalization of symptoms and biochemical as well as imaging procedure findings.
