title: Pancreatic calcification in an 18-yr-old patient following gallstone pancreatitis and recurrent pseudocysts.
abstract: Most authors believe that biliary pancreatitis rarely progresses to chronic pancreatitis. Here, we present a case of an 18-yr-old white male with a history of gallstone pancreatitis and pancreatic pseudocyst resulting in radiographic and pathologic evidence of pancreatic calcification over a 16-mo period.
