Core Tip |
Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is rare and often misdiagnosed. The lymphoplasmacytic sclerosing form, type 1 AIP (AIP-1), represents the pancreatic manifestation of immunoglobulin G4-related disease, while the idiopathic ductal centric form, type 2 AIP (AIP-2), is often associated with inflammatory bowel disease. AIP-1 presents with obstructive jaundice or abnormalities in exocrine and endocrine pancreatic function; AIP-2 usually shows abdominal pain and acute pancreatitis. The atypical mass-forming abnormality of the pancreas implies the need to histologically distinguish AIP form pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Steroids are the first-line therapy for both AIP-1 and AIP-2, rituximab is a good alternative for AIP-1. Given the high relapse rate, long-term maintenance therapy is recommended. Scientific efforts are focusing on target therapies. |
