Key Words	Autoimmune pancreatitis; Diagnosis; Criteria; Japanese; International consensus diagnostic criteria
Core Tip	Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) was first reported in Japan in 1995. Since then, a large series of studies has been documented and the concept of AIP is now recognized worldwide. Two distinct subtypes of AIP occur with different incidences in Asian and western countries. Type 1 is often associated with IgG4-related systemic diseases and shares histological features of lymphoplasmacytic sclerosing pancreatitis. Type 2 is usually not associated with IgG4 abnormality and histologically shows idiopathic duct-centric pancreatitis with granulocytic epithelial lesions. Independent diagnostic criteria had previously been used in individual countries, but international consensus diagnostic criteria were published in 2011.
