Kim, Goo, Cho, Park, Seo, Lim, Park, Woo, and Youn: A Case of Acute Pancreatitis without Abdominal Pain

Abstract

We report a boy with acute pancreatitis without abdominal pain accompanied by hepatic hematoma and massive ascites due to unperceived trauma. The case was difficult to diagnose with image study and the level of amylase. Strong suspicion of pancreatic injury based on mechanism of injury and clinical evaluation would be required to avoid a delay in diagnosis.
