Acute pancreatitis associated with gallstones in a twelve-year-old girl.
Pancreatitis is a rare disease under the age of 15 years, and expecially so when associated with gallstones. A case is reported here of a young girl who had acute pancreatitis and was subsequently found to have gallstones. She made an uneventful recovery and remains symptom-free after cholecystectomy.
