Acute pancreatitis is associated with a wide variety of infectious agents including mumps, hepatitis B virus, Coxsackie virus, Mycoplasma, Legionella, Aspergillus and Toxoplasma. There are a few reports of acute pancreatitis caused by Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection abroad, but rare in Korea. We treated a case of acute pancreatitis in a 13-year-old girl who presented with nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and severe abdominal pain. The clinical and laboratory findings led to the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis; the cause was confirmed by serological evidence of mycoplasma pneumoniae infection. We report acute pancreatitis caused by mycoplasma pneumoniae infection and review the literature.
