Abstract:
Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is a rare form of chronic pancreatitis which is closely related with abnormal autoimmune.To some extent,it is too difficult to identify the diagnosis between AIP and pancreatic cancer.The treatment includes hormone therapy and surgery.In this article,based on accumulating the experience in the diagnosis and treatment of AIP cases for many years and reviewing the related literatures,we evaluate its type,the etiology and the clinical presentations,as well as summarize the typical characteristics of pathology,radiology and serology.
