| Popis: | We are reporting the case of a 23-yr-old patient who had recurring episodes of acute pancreatitis characterized by the typical abdominal pain, elevated serum levels of pancreatic enzymes, and enlargement of the pancreas and edema on sonogram. These episodes were accompanied by facial erythema with conjunctival injection, generalized pruritus, diarrhea, and eosinophilia, and they were induced by the consumption of milk. The serum levels of IgE specific to cow milk proteins and to beta-lactoglobulin were increased. We suggest that these episodes are caused by a milk allergy (milk), that has been described as an unusual cause of acute pancreatitis. |
