Core Tip Pancreatitis, panniculitis, and polyarthritis (PPP) syndrome is a rare disease. The combination of joint inflammation and abscess-like skin lesions suggests an infectious cause. However, these symptoms are triggered by pancreatic disease. As abdominal symptoms may be delayed or absent, PPP syndrome may be challenging to diagnose and treat. We present our experience in treating a 66-year-old patient with PPP syndrome. In conclusion, PPP syndrome should be considered in cases of hard-to-treat or atypical joint and tissue infections.
