| Core Tip |
Clinical course of ulcerative colitis (UC) patients who develop acute pancreatitis is not well known. In a large prospectively maintained inflammatory bowel disease cohort at Asan Medical Center, we found 51 cases of acute pancreatitis among 3,307 UC patients. Among these, there were 13 (0.4%) patients with autoimmune, 10 (0.3%) with aminosalicyte-induced, and 13 (1.73%) with thiopurine-induced pancreatitis, whose colectomy rates were 15.4% (2/13), 20% (2/10), and 15.4% (2/13), respectively. The colectomy rate for non-pancreatitis patients was 7.3% (239/3256), which was not significantly different from those of acute pancreatitis patients, after adjusting for baseline extent. |
