| Core Tip |
Penetrating peptic ulcers (PPU) represent an extremely rare cause of abdominal pain, and can sometimes manifest with mild to severe acute pancreatitis. However, only a few cases of association between PPU and emphysematous pancreatitis (EP) have been published so far in the literature. Here we report an extremely rare case of a duodenal ulcer penetrating the pancreas and complicated with EP. Unlike the classic form of EP, which involves the whole parenchyma and has a poor prognosis, we found that the focal emphysematous involvement of the pancreas by PPU has a benign clinical course if an appropriate therapy is promptly established. |
