Article information

Se presenta un caso de sarcoidosis que se inició como una pancreatitis aguda y cuyo diagnóstico se estableció mediante mediastinoscopia. Se concluye que, aunque la afectación pancreática es poco frecuente y, en general, asintomática, debe ser incluida entre la larga lista de factores desencadenantes de pancreatitis aguda.

Palabras clave:
Sarcoidosis pancreática
Pancreatitis aguda

We describe a case of sarcoidosis that began as acute pancreatitis. Diagnosis was established by mediastinoscopy. Although involvement of the pancreas is rare and in general asymptomatic, we conclude that sarcoidosis should be included in the long list of factors that can trigger acute pancreatitis.

Key words:
Pancreatic sarcoidosis
Acute pancreatitis
