Key Words	Autoimmune pancreatitis; Pancreatic portal hypertension; Gastric varices; Case report
Core Tip	Few studies have reported pancreatic portal hypertension (PPH) related to autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP), in our case, the complications of superior mesenteric vein and splenic vein thromboses, splenomegaly, and gastric varicose veins were observed with AIP. We administered long-term glucocorticoid therapy and performed close follow-up. Comparing the observations after 4 and 8 months of treatment, thrombus recanalization, disappearance of gastric varices (GV), and spleen shrinkage were observed. Therefore, we believe that glucocorticoid therapy can reduce the development and potential reversibility of GV in patients with AIP, and the patients with PPH associated with AIP will benefit more from active steroid therapy. But there is still controversy about the duration of hormone therapy, long-term follow-up of patients is required.
