Introduction
Immoderate alcohol consumption and gallstones are by
far the most frequent etiologic factors for acute pancreatitis, accounting for up to 70% of all cases. The remaining
30% are patients where no triggering event can be identified (idiopathic pancreatitis, approximately 15%) and in
15%, rare causes are identified in association with acute
pancreatitis. These include anatomical variants, metabolic disorders, drugs, tumors, genetic abnormalities,
and infectious diseases. In this chapter we review some
of the rarer causes of acute pancreatitis.
Metabolic Diseases
Hyperlipidemia and hypercalcemia are the best- known
metabolic causes for acute pancreatitis. To a lesser
extent, diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a severe complication of diabetes mellitus can cause pancreatitis.
Hypercalcemia
Hypercalcemia often results from primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT), a disorder of the parathyroid glands that
is defined by an inappropriate secretion of parathyroid
hormone (PTH)[1]. Elevated calcium levels affect other
organs, including the gastrointestinal tract. However,
determination of the incidence of hyperparathyroidism-
related pancreatitis is difficult because patients often harbor comorbidities such as concomitant alcohol abuse,
cholecystolithiasis, or hypertriglyceridemia. In many
cases a definite assignment of the etiology of acute pancreatitis is not possible because patients have additional
risk factors for acute
pancreatitis has been observed in 1.5–6.8% of patients
with primary hyperparathyroidism, for example. The
highest incidences were reported from India where a
higher predisposition for (tropical) calcific pancreatitis
was also observed[2–4]. Mean serum calcium levels are
higher in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism and
coexisting acute pancreatitis (12.8–13.3 mg/dL) compared to individuals with hyperparathyroidism who do
not develop pancreatitis (11.6–12.1 g/dL) [2,5,6]. After
parathyroidectomy, the causative therapy for pHPT, risk
of pancreatitis dramatically reduced[4].
Hypercalcemia resulting in acute pancreatitis may also
be attributed to unrelated diseases of the parathyroid
glands but these cases are extremely rare. Reports of secondary hypercalcemia due to either solid or hematologic
malignant tumor disorders, including multiple myeloma[7] and iatrogenic causes of hypercalcemia such as
calcium- containing infusions during cardiac surgery[8]
or for parenteral nutrition[9] underline that high circulating calcium levels predispose to pancreatitis.
The molecular mechanisms of hypercalcemiapancreatitis are gradually being resolved. Ca
important for intracellular signaling and homeostasis.
Disturbances in intracellular calcium levels impair its
signaling function and high cytosolic levels within the
exocrine acinar cell trigger premature protease activation[10]. Blocking the uptake of calcium into the cells or
chelation of intracellular ionized Ca2+ largely prevents
digestive zymogen activation and pancreatic damage[11].
Mutations in the calcium- sensing receptor gene (CASR),
encoding a G protein- coupled receptor regulating
calcium homeostasis, were associated with chronic pancreatitis but are not directly related to acute pancreatitis

in pHPT patients [12]. Several clinical trials have been
set up to investigate the possibility of reducing the
incidence and severity of pancreatitis by interfering with
the intracellular effects of calcium.
Hypertriglyceridemia
It is known that elevated lipid levels are associated with
cardiovascular diseases. However, hyperlipidemia is a
rare but well- established cause of acute pancreatitis as
well. This is mostly related to hypertriglyceridemia,
because hypercholesterolemia by itself does not cause
acute pancreatitis. Hypertriglyceridemia and hyperlipidemia in general are becoming more common in industrialized countries and it has been reported that over
1.5% of the US population has severe hypertriglyceridemia (defined as a serum concentration of 500–
2000
mg/dL) [13]. Normal triglyceride levels for adults
should be less than 150 mg/dL[14].
Acute pancreatitis secondary to hypertriglyceridemia
is seen in between 1.3% and 3.8% of patients [15–17].
Typically, triglyceride levels above 1000 mg/dL (or
11.4 mmol/L) precipitate acute pancreatitis with a risk of
around 5%. Triglyceride levels exceeding 2000 mg/dL
more than double that risk to 10–20%. In addition, data
from a large Danish registry- based study indicate that
even nonfasting mild to moderate triglyceride levels
≥177 mg/dL (2 mmol/L) increase the risk of pancreatitis
so that dyslipidemia needs to be considered as a potential cause of acute pancreatitis more often than previously assumed[18].
Plasma triglycerides can be of exogenous or endogenous origin. Normally, dietary triglycerides are the main
source and form the main lipid component in very- low
density lipoproteins (VLDL). Once hydrolyzed in the
small intestine they are absorbed and incorporated into
chylomicrons and transported via lymphatic vessels to
peripheral tissues for further utilization. Cells of all
parenchymal tissues secrete lipoprotein lipases that
hydrolyze triglycerides and surface components of chylomicrons and VLDL to release free fatty acids for energy
supply. Fatty acids are converted to fatty acid ethyl esters
(FAEE) by carboxylester lipase (CEL), an enzyme also
expressed in pancreatic acinar cells. FAEE themselves
exert toxic direct effects on cells and also raise intracellular Ca
2+
concentrations that further promote cellular
damage[19].
Patients with hypertriglyceridemia often have a
concomitant history of diabetes mellitus (72%), hyperlipidemia (I, IV, and V according to Fredrickson’s classification, 77%), alcohol abuse (23%), or gallstones (7%).
Triglyceride levels are also elevated in the setting of
DKA[16,20]. Typically, a lipid abnormality presents as a
secondary factor (obesity, diabetes mellitus) whereas
isolated hyperlipidemia (usually type I or V) is much less
common[21]. Moreover, mild to moderate hypertriglyceridemia is not infrequently seen in alcoholic pancreatitis patients as a secondary effect of excessive alcohol
consumption and this is much more common than
hyperlipidemia- induced pancreatitis in association with
primary or inherited forms of hypertriglyceridemia.
Clinically, alcohol abuse still needs to be ruled out as the
cause of acute pancreatitis whenever hypertriglyceridemia is diagnosed [21,22]. Patients with familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS), a rare autosomal- re cessive
disorder characterized by a loss of lipoprotein lipase
(LPL) activity due to inactivating mutations of the LPL
gene or genes encoding for proteins that regulate LPL
activity such as apolipoproteins C- II and A- 5 (APOC2,
APOA5), glycosylphosphatidylinositol- anchored highdensity lipoprotein binding protein 1 (GPIHBP1), and
lipase maturation factor 1 (LMF1), have an increased risk
of recurrent acute pancreatitis resulting from an excessive increase of plasma triglycerides by more than 10 to
100 times above the normal level[23].
Diagnosis of hypertriglyceridemia- induced pancreatitis needs to be established early after disease onset
because serum triglycerides levels usually fall rapidly
after fasting periods and hypocaloric intravenous volume therapy[21].
It still remains controversial whether hypertriglyceridemia- induced pancreatitis tends to have a
more severe course. Some data indicate that severe acute
pancreatitis and organ complications may be more frequent in the presence of hypertriglyceridemia[22].
Initial treatment of hypertriglyceridemia- induced
pancreatitis is the same as for other etiologies
andincludes fluid resuscitation, analgesia, and controlled
oral food intake. In cases of severe acute pancreatitis and
sustained excessive elevation of triglyceride levels lipid
apheresis might be considered as a therapeutic option
but a clear benefit has not been consistently shown[24].
Emphasis should be laid on lifestyle modifications and
lipid- lowering agents, fibrates in the first line, to prevent
further attacks of pancreatitis[14]. In patients with FCS,
a therapy with volanesorsen, an antisense oligonucleotide targeting APOC3mRNA can be used as an adjunct
therapy when conventional triglyceride lowering agents
failed[23].
Diabetic Ketoacidosis
Acute pancreatitis can arise as a severe complication of
diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) with a risk of high mortality.
Unfortunately, it is often overlooked because abdominal
pain or peritoneal irritation can result from ketoacidosis
and hyperlipasemia/- amylasemia might be unspecifically elevated. Acute pancreatitis occurs in at least

https://t.me/medicina_free
10–15% of patients with DKA [20]. It has also been
reported during non- ketoacidotic hyperosmolar coma
but this is very rare. The pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis in DKA is often attributed to hypertriglyceridemia
that frequently occurs in parallel. Normally, hypertriglyceridemia is transient and resolves once DKA is corrected[20]. Insulin, fluid resuscitation under control of
glucose, and electrolyte balance are key elements in the
management of DKA. Plasmapheresis is used in refractory cases complicated by severe hypertriglyceridemia.
Bariatric Surgery
The number of bariatric surgeries performed annually is
constantly growing. Besides weight loss an improvement
of obesityrelevant intention. In the context of acute pancreatitis, it
is noteworthy that there is some evidence of so- called
“post- bariatric pancreatitis.” Currently, a few case reports
of post- bariatric pancreatitis as an early complication following laparoscopic gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy
exist. Consistently in these cases, pancreatitis developed
within a few days after surgery. Intraoperative manipulation of peripancreatic tissue, compromised pancreatic
microcirculation, edema, and spasm of major papilla as
well as small bowel or outlet obstruction caused by blood
clots have been suggested as triggers. Since pancreatitis
as a short- term complication of bariatric surgery is rarely
seen, the exact mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Data
from a historical cohort of patients who underwent Rouxen- Y gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, adjustable gastric
banding, and revisional procedures showed a higher
incidence of acute pancreatitis than in the general population[25]. The risk of acute pancreatitis is higher after
vertical sleeve gastrectomy compared to Roux- en- Y
gastric bypass surgery [26]. However, it is believed that
this risk increase is primarily driven by biliary disease
associated metabolic diseases is becoming a
caused by sludge or gallstones as a result of rapid
post- surgery weight loss, especially after sleeve gastrectomy. Hence, post- bariatric pancreatitis is likely seen
exclusively as an acute complication after surgery,
whereas in the longer term, pancreatitis may be caused by
other and more common etiologies, first of all biliary.
Infectious Diseases
Data regarding the influence of microorganisms on acute
pancreatitis and their incidence are rare and almost
exclusively based on case reports. Sometimes it is not
entirely clear whether other causes have been ruled out.
Patients with acute pancreatitis based on an infectious
agent often have a coexistent immunocompromising
disorder or diabetes. The microbes involved include bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites (Table22.1)[27].
Bacteria
Numerous bacterial pathogens have been mentioned as
causing acute pancreatitis but mostly they are described
in single case presentations. Rep orts exist on Mycoplasma,
Legionella, Leptospira, Salmonella, Campylobacter, and
Brucella species as well as Mycobacteria tuberculosis. The
pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis is most likely related to
released bacterial toxins. Antimicrobial treatment was
initiated upon diagnosis of bacteria- related acute pancreatitis in the majority of cases. However, some reports
mention a resolution of pancreatitis with only symptomatic treatment.
Viruses
Of all the infectious agents, most reports exist on mumps
virus and its relation to acute pancreatitis. Paramyxovirus
causes mumps and although this disease usually has a

mild course, pancreatitis was reported in around 4% of
mumps patients[28,29].
The association between hepatitis A, B, and C viruses
and acute pancreatitis has also been described. Hepatitis
E infections are increasingly diagnosed in Western countries and reports on associated acute pancreatitis have
been published [30]. Acute pancreatitis usually has a
favorable outcome when related to viral hepatitis.
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)- positive
patients with the diagnosis of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) are also at risk for acute pancreatitis. So far, data are not conclusive whether these
patients suffer from a more severe course of the disease.
Severe acute pancreatitis was reported in 10–50% of
patients with AIDS[31]. Modern therapeutic regimens
for HIV/AIDS are associated with a much lower incidence of acute pancreatitis and a lesser degree of severity
than earlier regimes that included the use of high pentamidine and didanosine concentrations.
In humans, group B coxsackie virus infections affect
many organs including the heart, the central nervous
system, and the pancreas. In addition, the association of
this member of the picornaviridae family with acute pancreatitis has already been investigated in experimental
animal models.
Gastrointestinal symptoms are observed in patients
infected by severe acute respiratory distress coronavirus
2 (SARS- CoV- 2). So far, small retrospective and casecontrol studies suggest that acute pancreatitis is an infrequent complication of COVID- 19 infection and the
proposed underlying pathomechanisms seem to make
this association plausible. However, a true increase in the
incidence of acute pancreatitis during the COVID- 19
pandemic has not been firmly demonstrated [32].
Moreover, diagnosis of acute pancreatitis must be clearly
differentiated from a sole elevation of serum pancreatic
enzymes, which occurs more frequently[33]. Cytotoxic
effects, disturbed immune reactions, a penetration of
CoV- 2mediated by ACE2 receptors to the pan-
SARScreas and virus- associated coagulopathies are currently
being discussed as causative mechanisms.
Other suspected viruses include varicella zoster virus,
causing chickenpox[34], influenza[35], herpes simplex,
Epstein–Barr, and cytomegalovirus[27].
Fungi
Data on fungal infections causing acute pancreatitis are
extremely rare; more often fungi manifest as a late infectious complication of severe acute pancreatitis with
infected necrosis. Among them Candida spp. is the most
common fungal microorganism that is seen secondary to
pancreatitis [36]. Aspergillus species are discussed as a
potential causative agent for pancreatitis as well [27].
Most fungal infections involving the pancreas are superinfections of pancreatic or extrapancreatic necrosis and
thus secondary events. Once they occur they have a negative effect on outcome and mortality. Prior antibiotic
treatment of (bacterially) infected necrosis does not
appear to increase the rate of fungal infection of
necrosis.
Parasites
Some case reports exist on acute pancreatitis caused by
Toxoplasma, Cryptosporidium, Ascaris, Plasmodium falciparum infections, or helminths (Strongyloides). An
immunomediated mechanism is discussed as being the
underlying mechanism but even immunocompetent
individuals can develop pancreatitis. For parasites such
as Ascaris lumbricoides, Fasciola hepatica, and
Clonorchis sinensis the disease mechanism is identical to
that of gallstone- induced pancreatitis: impaction in the
duodenal papilla and obstruction of the pancreatic duct.
They account for up to 5% of cases of “biliary” pancreatitis in some parts of Asia and China and endoscopic
removal of the parasite from the papilla remains the
therapy of choice.
Drug- Related Diseases
According to the World Health Organization (WHO)
more than 525 drugs have been reported to cause acute
pancreatitis as a potential side- effect. It is expected that the
number of medications will increase in parallel with the
approval of new drugs and accumulating case reports[37].
However, the level of evidence differs as knowledge is
essentially extrapolated from case reports with varying
strength in quality [38]. By definition, case reports only
produce the lowest level of evidence in epidemiologic studies. Moreover, drug- related acute pancreatitis is usually
not accompanied by other clinical or laboratory signs of
adverse drug reactions such as a rash, lymphadenopathy,
or eosinophilia. Therefore diagnosis is often difficult to
establish[39]. A rechallenge with the suspected drug and
induction of an additional attack of pancreatitis (after initial withdrawal) allows researchers to conclude potential
causality but is not definitive proof. Apart from this challenge, ethical considerations limit the use of rea drug in order to trigger a second attack of pancreatitis
with its potential complications. The incidence of druginduced pancreatitis is low and is estimated to account for
0.1–2% of all cases[40,41]. Very young and older people,
women, and patients suffering from immunosuppressive
disorders (such as HIV) or inflammatory bowel disorders
are at higher risk. Risk increases in these groups by up to
fourfold and is most probably based on immune- mediated
exposure to

reactions and the type of drugs prescribed for these
disorders[37,38,42].
There are many different ways currently in use to classify drugs according to their risk of causing adverse
events. With regard to acute pancreatitis the classification model of Badalov and coworkers from 2007 is currently the most frequently used. It subdivides drugs into
four groups (class I–IV), based on the quality of published evidence for each agent reported as having caused
acute pancreatitis[43]:
● Class I: Group with highest level of evidence and the
presence of a positive rechallenge test for the drug.
Class I drugs can be further subdivided into those in
which other potential causes for acute pancreatitis
(i.e., alcohol, gallstones, hypertriglyceridemia) have
been ruled out (Ia) and those where other causes were
not excluded in the relevant reports (Ib).
● Class II: At least four case reports for the particular
drug are required. In addition, ≥75% of the cases must
show a consistent drug latency, meaning that time of
onset of pancreatitis is within a reasonable time frame
after drug consumption. The mean interval between
initial drug intake and start of symptoms is around
5weeks, with a wide range of 2 to 36weeks[44].
● Class III: At least two case reports exist but there is
neither a consistent latency among the cases nor a
published rechallenge test.
● Class IV: Weakest level of evidence based on a single
case report, no rechallenge test was done.
Alternatively, drug- related adverse effects are classified
by application of the Bradford Hill criteria. Nine different criteria evaluate the evidence of causation and one of
them is the claim for biologic plausibility, meaning that
the proposed causality must have been shown in an
experimental laboratory setting[45].
A third classification system groups drugs according to a
definite, probable, or possible causality for an adverse
reaction. The main characteristics include: (i) a reasonable
temporal relationship from drug intake to onset of symptoms, (ii) a known underlying pharmacologic mechanism,
(iii) presence or absence of other causes for the particular
side- effect, and (iv) recurrent disease after rechallenge[46].
Depending on the quality of the case report, it can happen
that a suspected medication might be classified once as a
definite and once as a probable risk factor[38].
To assess the probability of a causal relationship
between a drug and an adverse event, also the Naranjo
criteria can be used. Besides questions on existing conclusive reports on the specific drug reaction, assessment
of symptoms after drug discontinuation, and information on serum concentrations of the drug, this algorithm
also considers whether alternate causes of acute pancreatitis have been excluded[47].
The underlying mechanism of drug injury on the pancreas is likely based on idiosyncratic reactions. This type
of reaction is characterized as being unpredictable, doseindependent, and with varying latency. From a pathophysiologic point of view idiosyncratic reactions are
often mediated by an immunologic or cytotoxic mechanism of the specific compound or its metabolites.
Unfortunately, they are difficult to reproduce in experimental animal models, whereas effects of intrinsic toxicity are mimicked more easily. Intrinsic toxicity implies
organ damage in a dose- dependent way and is usually
seen as toxicity after drug overdoses. With regard to the
pancreas there are only a few reports based on an intrinsic mechanism covering acetaminophen, erythromycin,
and carbamazepine[43]. A list of drugs often named in
association with acute pancreatitis is given in Table22.2.
In addition, some of the most frequently cited drugs
and their corresponding potential pathophysiologic
mechanisms are discussed here.
Nonsteroidal anti-
inflammatory drugs (NSAID) have
been proposed to induce acute pancreatitis, probably
due to inhibition of prostaglandins. Prostaglandins seem
to have a protective and membrane- stabilizing effect on
pancreatic cells, as shown in experimental models[37,48]. The highest risks were reported for diclofenac
(odds ratio [OR] 5.0) and the lowest for naproxen (OR
1.1). Use of selective COX- 2inhibitors can lower the risk
for acute pancreatitis[38,49]. Conversely, given prophylactically as suppositories unselective NSAID have been
shown to lower the rate of endoscopic cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)- induced pancreatitis, at least in very
high- risk patients.
Estrogens, which are also used in oral contraceptives,
may induce acute pancreatitis by reducing lipoprotein
lipase activity, which then increases serum triglycerides
and fatty acids. These components are known to be precipitating factors for acute pancreatitis[50].
Angiotensin- converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors such
as captopril, enalapril, lisinopril, and others decrease degradation of bradykinins that are released during acute pancreatitis. Bradykinins cause a local angioedema that could
favor tissue edema or pancreatic duct obstruction and subsequent organ damage. There is also evidence fora direct
toxic effect of ACE inhibitors on the pancreas[51,52].
Several studies report on the side- effects of azathioprine
and 6- mercaptopurine, and these include acute pancreatitis. Interestingly azathioprine- induced pancreatitis is
nearly never reported outside the field of inflammatory
bowel disease (IBD), especially Crohn’s disease [38].
Presumably the drug’s toxicity is associated with the underlying disease. Affected individuals carry an up to 8- to 13fold increased risk of acute pancreatitis [53,54]. With
regard to 6- mercaptopurine, 3.25% to 6% of patients with
IBD being treated with that drug develop acute

pancreatitis[55,56]. It is noteworthy that 5- aminosalicylic
acid (OR 0.7) and sulfasalazine (OR 1.5), which are also frequently used for IBD treatment, were not associated with
significantly increased pancreatitis risk in a recent
report[57].
3- Hydroxy- 3- methylglutaryl- coenzyme A (HMGCoA) reductase inhibitors (commonly known as statins),
such as simvastatin, pravastatin, and atorvastatin are
thought to have direct toxic effects and in a number of
cases drug interactions involving cytochrome P450 3A4
(CYP3A4) seem to contribute to pancreatitis. However
the overall risk for acute pancreatitis is rather low with
an OR ranging from 1.01 to 2.02, so statins seem to be of
low importance for drug- induced pancreatitis[58].
Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors such as
didanosine, lamivudine, and stavudine have a toxic effect
on the pancreas. In addition they cause metabolic disturbances[52]. HIV patients with a low CD4 count are at a
higher risk[38].
Asparaginase is a cytostatic drug and commonly
used for treatment of non- Hodgkin lymphoma
and acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Asparaginaseassociated acute pancreatitis was reported from 5–13
% in these therapies occurring in both children and
adults with similar risk while pancreatitis- related complications were most frequently observed in adolescents. Re- administration of asparaginase is related
with a high rate (up to 44%) of recurrence of acute pancreatitis and therefore should be carefully considered
before rechallenging[59].
Consumption of valproic acid or other anti- epileptic
drugs is associated with an increased risk for acute pancreatitis, presumably mediated by direct toxic effects and
an increase of reactive oxygen species[38,52]. According
to recent studies and in contrast to older reports, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) do not increase
the risk of acute pancreatitis[60].
Soon after introduction of incretin mimetics
(glucagon-
like peptide- 1 [GLP- 1] agonists) safety concerns arose about the potential of acute pancreatitis as a
side- effect, especially for exenatide and sitagliptin.
Reports were also released on dipeptidyl- peptidase- 4
(DPP- 4) inhibitors[61,62]. Recent analyses failed to find
an unequivocal effect on the incidence of pancreatitis
and were explained by the fact that people with diabetes
already are at increased risk of developing acute
pancreatitis[37,63,64]. A higher prevalence of gallstone
disease or hypertriglyceridemia is also seen in this
patient group [65]. Summing up, the role of incretin
mimetics is not conclusively answered: preexisting risk
factors such as diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disorders explain most pancreatitis cases in this group and
the large safety trials on DPP- 4 inhibitors have largely
calmed the initial concerns about an association with
pancreatitis.
Immune checkpoint inhibitors are directed against
cytotoxic T- lymphocyte- associated- antigen 4 (CTLA4),
programmed cell death protein 1 (PD- 1) or its ligand 1
(PD- L1), which are expressed on T cells, antigen presenting and tumor cells, respectively. They are increasingly used for treatment of a growing number of
malignant tumors and for some entities combinations
of checkpoint inhibitors exist. Due to the higher number of prescriptions immune-
related adverse events
are observed more frequently. Pancreatic injury is
observed in up to 4% of patients being treated with
immune checkpoint inhibitors[66], most often manifested by an asymptomatic increase of serum lipase
and amylase but occasionally also by acute pancreatitis. Treatment consists of discontinuation and in severe
cases of immune- mediated reactions steroid treatment
is required.
Very few case reports exist on drug- induced acute
pancreatitis after penicillin- type antibiotics and these

belong to class IV group because usually no rechallenge
has been done after discontinuation of the
medication[67].
For all drug- associated forms of pancreatitis management consists of drug discontinuation and supportive
care, as for other types of acute pancreatitis. If necessary,
a drug of a different class will be selected for further
therapy. However, drug- induced pancreatitis remains a
