Ionescu, Alina Andreea - Abstract:
- A 44-year-old, Caucasian man was referred to the respiratory team for worsening difficulty in breathing and decreased exercise tolerance in September 2015. He had been admitted to the general surgery department in December 2014, and treated for an acute severe pancreatitis complicated by a lesser sac collection, necrotic pancreatitis and gastric outlet obstruction. The treatment was conservative and supportive; following his discharge from hospital, he had repeated re-admissions with symptomatic ascites needing drainage via paracentesis. Can you diagnose this patient and identify the uncommon cause of his illness? http://ow.ly/t4nX30bzJFz
