Abstract
INTRODUCTION: We report a case of acute pancreatitis complicating an endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair (EVAR). REPORT: A seventy three year old man underwent an EVAR and developed acute onset epigastric pain, followed by mottling of the upper abdominal wall. A raised amylase confirmed the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis. DISCUSSION: To our knowledge this is the first report of this complication of EVAR.Entities:
