proximity rather than mucosal content[51]. Duplication
cysts within the pancreas have been reported and are
generally termed as duodenal or gastric duplications
since they lack a contiguous structure (Fig.20.3a, b)[59].
Although most enteric duplications do not present with
pancreatitis, multiple cases have been identified[65,66].
Duodenal duplication occurs in 10% or fewer cases and
may cause “obstructive pancreatitis” from compression
between the duodenal wall and the biliopancreatic
duct[67,68]. Juxta- pancreatic duplications with pancreatic ductal communication may shed blood or mucous
into the main pancreatic duct resulting in obstruction[69–71]. Pancreatitis may occur within the duplication itself, as is found in esophageal duplications
containing gastric mucosa and pancreatic tissue
(43%)[72]. Local resection is preferred; however, marsupialization of cysts with removal of mucosa, either
surgical or endoscopic, may be employed if local resection is not possible[73,74].

ampulla into the pancreatic duct. Excision of the cyst with suture
ligation of its narrow neck was curative of her recurrent pancreatitis.

Conclusions
Infrequently, congenital anomalies may be the cause of
idiopathic acute pancreatitis. Nonanatomic congenital
causes must be assessed by diligent investigation.
Regarding anatomic congenital anomalies, strict definition of the anatomic relationships and associated anomalies is necessary to direct appropriate therapy. Because
congenital anomalies are often unique, unusual anatomic
relationships may be discovered in each case. Previous
case series in the literature provide useful longitudinal
data to help in predicting outcomes and avoiding known
pitfalls.

Introduction
The Second International Symposium in Marseilles in
1984 defined acute pancreatitis (AP) as acute abdominal
pain accompanied by the finding of increased pancreatic enzymes in blood or urine[1]. However, the pathophysiology of acute pancreatic inflammation has
remained difficult to describe, partly due to the relative
inaccessibility of the pancreas on physical examination,
and to the frequently nonspecific nature of symptoms
resulting from diseases of the pancreas. Despite these
difficulties, understanding of adult pancreatitis has
increased in an exponential manner in recent decades.
Unfortunately, the understanding of the pediatric counterpart has lagged, although much progress has been
made in recent years.
Pediatric AP poses a challenge to clinicians. Depending
on the age and developmental level of a child, it can be
extremely difficult to assess the nonspecific symptoms of
abdominal pain and nausea or vomiting. Defining the
location and nature of the pain and identifying factors
that aggravate or alleviate the pain can be particularly
challenging in a pediatric patient. Compounding this
challenge is that many healthcare professionals still do
not consider pancreatitis in the differential diagnosis of
pediatric abdominal pathology. Hence, children may
experience symptoms from pancreatic inflammation and
be diagnosed with “viral gastroenteritis.” For all these
reasons, unraveling the complexities of pediatric AP
remains an ongoing process.
The challenges in pediatric AP lie in three major
areas:
● potential etiologies, many of which are more particu-
lar to children;
● diagnosis, including serum biochemistry and imaging
techniques;
● assessing and following for disease severity and
complications.
This chapter will strive to cover these areas as they pertain to pediatric AP.
Incidence
The prevailing impression amongst pediatric specialists
is that the incidence of pediatric acute AP is increasing.
A number of population- based series have attempted to
quantify the incidence of AP[2–13]. These studies suggest that the incidence of AP in children has truly
increased over the past several decades. Since the initial
study by Lopez showing a steady increase in the absolute
number of cases of AP per year in a single institution, a
number of other centers throughout the world have
reported similar observations [2] (Table21.1). An estimate of incidence ranged from 1 to 3 cases per 10,000
children. Proposed explanations for the increasing diagnosis of AP in children include increased awareness that
AP occurs in children, a true rise in new cases of pediatric AP, increased referral of children to tertiary care centers, and an increase of AP in children with other systemic
diseases[2,12,13]. Likely, a combination of these events
explains the increased incidence.
Etiology
An adult presenting with a first episode of AP is questioned and investigated to identify the presence of one of
two major etiologies for adult AP: biliary disease and

alcohol ingestion. These, in fact, appear to account for
most cases of AP in adults. In children, by contrast, the
etiologies of AP are more broadly divided (Table21.2).
Figure21.1 summarizes the breakdown of presumed etiologies based on previously published series from multiple countries. In general, the largest categories are divided
up amongst idiopathic (24%), trauma (17%), systemic
(15%), structural (14%), and medications (10%). A recent
single- center study suggested that drug- induced pancreatitis is the leading known cause of AP [14]. The same
center also reported that first attack of pancreatitis was
associated with genetic risk factors in 18% of patients[14].
Since genetic testing is not often done with the initial episode of AP, many studies may underestimate the role of
genetic variants. The various risk factors may act alone or
jointly to lead to a clinical episode of AP[15].
Pathophysiology
The pathophysiology of pediatric AP is believed to be
identical to that of adult AP.

Investigations
A great diversity of potential etiologies of AP is demonstrated in Table21.2. Clinical finesse is involved in determining which causes should be considered for each child
presenting with a first episode of AP. Unlike many pediatric
diseases, the etiology of AP does not vary significantly
among individual age groups[16–18]. A stepwise consideration of probable, possible, and rare etiologies in conjunction with elicited history of present illness, past
medical history, family history, and findings on physical
examination will direct investigations and limit invasive
and sometimes painful procedures for the pediatric patient,
as well as minimize unnecessary costs. Since genetic risk
factors are common in children, a thorough family history
for documented pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, pancreatic
insufficiency including insulin-
dependent diabetes, and/or
family members exhibiting symptoms that could be consistent with acute recurrent pancreatitis is particularly
important.
Diagnosis
In 2012, an international group of pediatric gastroenterologists published a consensus statement defining AP in
childhood[19]. The clinical diagnosis of AP requires the
presence of at least two out of three criteria:
● A combination of abdominal pain that is consistent
with pancreatic origin;
● The presence of elevated amylase or lipase or both to
at least three times the upper limit of normal;
● Radiological imaging with findings consistent with AP.
Even with these criteria, the diagnosis of AP can present
challenges for the clinician. History and physical examination findings are variable: there may be epigastric to
right upper quadrant pain, left upper quadrant pain,
back pain, nausea, vomiting, jaundice, tachycardia,
guarding, or even signs of shock. In children under the
age of three, pain may present as increased irritability,
and abdominal distension and fever were more common
than in older children[16]. Clinicians must maintain a
high degree of suspicion, especially in younger children
in whom verbal communicative skills may be limited.
A particular pediatric consideration is that newborn
levels of pancreatic type isoamylase are very low to nondemonstrable, and total amylase levels reach normal
adult values by only approximately 8–16 months of
age [20,21]. Pancreatic isoamylase activity might not
even reach adult values until the age of 10 to 15 years[22].
In a similar fashion, lipase values at birth are significantly
lower than those observed for adults and appear to have
the greatest increase within the first year of life[23,24].
Hence, in a young patient, amylase and lipase levels may
not always reflect potential pancreatic inflammation
particularly if adult ranges of normal enzyme levels are
used as references[25].
Clinical scales are utilized to classify adults as having
mild or severe disease. Several different scales for children have been proposed over the years. None have been
widely applied. Two recent reports suggested that BUN
levels or the lipase level and the presence of a pediatric
systemic inflammatory response syndrome on admission were prognostic indicators for severe AP in children [14,26]. There was considerable overlap between
mild and severe AP for both. It remains to be seen if
either gains widespread acceptance and utilization, and
thus pediatric severity indices represent an area of necessary research[25].
Imaging
Imaging methods may be helpful in (a) diagnosis, (b)
determining severity and complications, and (c) visualizing any anatomic factors leading to AP[27].
Transabdominal ultrasonography (TUS) is widely available, relatively inexpensive, and does not expose a child to
radiation or contrast agent. Historically, TUS has often
been the initial diagnostic modality in suspected AP. It
can repeatedly be performed in almost any setting to follow the course of illness and does not require procedural
sedation. Ultrasonography may demonstrate enlargement of the pancreas, altered echogenicity, duct diameter
abnormalities, and fluid collections (intra- or extrapancreatic) [28], abnormalities of the pancreaticobiliary
drainage system, including the presence of a choledochal
cyst, or common bile duct stones[27]. Limitations include
air within the stomach interfering with image acquisition
from the body and tail of the pancreas, and differentiation
of normal from abnormal pancreas in cases of pancreatitis where echogenic changes may or may not be present.
A recent study showed that TUS is only moderately sensitive for diagnosing AP and that crosssuch as computed tomography (CT) provided higher sensitivity[29]. In addition, CT with contrast may be more
useful in more severe cases of AP to assess for local complications. The main drawback to more widespread CT
scan utilization is its radiation exposure.
The capability of magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP, with or without secretin) to diagnose
most cases of pancreas divisum, choledochal cyst, cholelithiasis, pancreaticobiliary junction anomalies and obstructive abnormalities has decreased the use of endoscopic
retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) for diagnostic purposes even though MRCP might not be as sensitive

as ERCP in detecting pancre atobiliary abnormalities[30,31].
Although MRCP offers imaging without radiation, there
are still pediatric factors to take into consideration. Due to
the relatively long duration of the procedure (15 to 45minutes), younger children will require sedation, ranging from
oral sedatives to intravenous general anesthesia and intubation. Additionally, the quality of MRCP images depend on
the protocol utilized for image acquisition as well as the
radiologist’s interpretation of these[32].
When indicated, pediatric ERCP in experienced hands
is safe and effective at all ages, although infants and
young toddlers may require slimmer pediatric duodenoscopes [33,34]. Pediatric uses include stone removal,
assessment of pancreatic duct anatomy and injuries,
drainage of nonresolving pancreatic pseudocysts,
sphincterotomy, and stent placement. ERCP at the time
of cholecystectomy is safe and effective in pediatric
patients[35]. The obvious difficulties with ERCP include
the need for sedation (typically general anesthesia), and
the use of ionizing radiation during fluoroscopy.
Experience with pediatric EUS has increasingly been
reported in recent years [36]. EUS provides detailed
imaging of pancreatic parenchyma and ducts without the
use of radiation, but with the need for sedation. Its benefits include not only its role in imaging, but also in interventions, with the capacity to sample tissue and fluid
collections through fine needle aspiration and biopsy, as
well as accomplish drainage of fluid collections such as
pseudocysts. As endoscopists increasingly become comfortable with pediatric use of EUS, its role in diagnosis
and management of AP will become better defined.
All radiological and endoscopic tests may offer complementary information regarding the cause or complications associated with pediatric AP. Clinicians must
weigh the potential benefits offered by an imaging technology against the drawbacks particular to each technique and decide on an algorithm for a particular patient.
Typically, pediatric patients are first assessed by TUS.
Subsequently, with a prolonged AP course, there may be
a need for either MRCP or CT to better delineate anatomy and to visualize potential complications. With the
need for a therapeutic maneuver, both ERCP and EUS
are becoming increasingly childto date shows they are safe and effective.

Management
Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and
Nutrition Studies published a position paper on the management of pediatric AP[37]. The role of i.v. fluids in the
treatment of AP has been the subject of several studies in
adults and children. However, details of i.v. therapy such
as volume, rate, timing, and composition of the fluid are
not firmly established. In one pediatric study, fluid rates
1.5 to 2 times maintenance in the first 24 h shortened
length of stay and severity of disease[38]. A second study
showed that patients given lactated Ringers solution had a
shorter length of stay compared to patients given normal
saline [39]. Another major change in management is the
recognition that early enteral feeding whether by mouth or
feeding tube is safe and may improve outcome[38,40–42].
Early feeds did not increase pain or length of stay and may
shorten length of stay. Additionally, patients with higher
fat intake did not have higher pain scores.
Outcomes
Overall, children generally have a mild clinical course
and only a small fraction have severe complications.
Pseudocysts represent the most frequent complication
occurring in 10–30% of cases [4,5,43]. They typically
present as a persistent abdominal discomfort, abdominal
mass on physical examination, continued elevation of
pancreatic enzymes, or identified on follow- up imaging.
Pseudocysts usually resolve spontaneously and rarely
require intervention. When indicated, potential therapeutic options include percutaneous catheter drainage
(radiological placement or surgical), cyst- gastrostomy
stent placement via EUS guidance, pancreatic duct stenting via ERCP, open surgical cyst- enteric anastomosis
drainage and, perhaps, antibiotic therapy[44,45].
Despite a generally positive outcome for pediatric AP,
up to 6% of children develop multiorgan failure or pancreatic necrosis[46]. Some studies have found an association between particular triggers of AP and serious
complications. As might be predicted, it appears that
children who have complex medical histories, including
those experiencing AP post liver transplantation, or in
the context of a systemic disease, are more susceptible to
severe and potentially fatal courses[46]. Mortality data
has rarely been reported in children. A database study
from 2000 to 2009 of 55,012 children hospitalized with
AP reported a mortality rate of about 1.0%[6].
The general measures undertaken in children with AP are
similar to those in adults. In most pediatric AP cases, clinical improvement occurs within a few days and discharge
is possible in less than a week. Several changes in management of patients with AP have occurred in recent years. In
2018, the Pancreas Committee of the North American
Acute Recurrent Pancreatitis
Acute recurrent pancreatitis (ARP) is defined as at least
two distinct episodes of AP separated by a return to normal baseline status [19]. It has been estimated that

10–35% of children have recurrent episodes of AP[46].
Most often the second episode occurs within 5months
of the first one[47]. Upon the first presentation, etiologies that are amenable to therapy should be sought and
if identified, managed appropriately (including hypercalcemia, hypertriglyceridemia, biliary factors, and
structural abnormalities). Any reversible cause should
be eliminated whenever possible (including culprit
medications). With additional attacks other investigations should be considered. Secretin- stimulated MRCP
may unveil anatomic abnormalities predisposing to
ARP. After a second episode of AP, genetic testing for
known risk variants should be done [48]. In a large
multi- center study, almost half of patients with ARP had
mutations in PRSS1, SPINK1, CFTR, or CTRC [49].

Since not all patients in this cohort had genetic testing
or were screened for fewer than four genes, the percentage of patients harboring gene mutations is likely higher.
In the same study, 75% of patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP) had genetic mutations. Mutational analysis is
now commercially available for these genetic loci. It is
anticipated that a high proportion of children with ARP
and CP will have genetic predispositions eventually
identified. Along with mutational analysis, a comprehensive search for rare causes of AP is typically indicated[50]. As it is believed that recurrent attacks of AP
may eventually lead to morphological changes of CP,
prevention of further pancreatic injury is a key interventional goal, and identification of etiologic factors represents the first step.
