title: [Acute recurrent pancreatitis and heterozygous mutation of the cystic fibrosis gene: a case report].
abstract: Recurrent pancreatitis is seldom associated with CFTR (Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Regulator) gene mutation.
  
  
  METHODS
  A 17-year-old boy presented with isolated idiopathic pancreatitis. CFTR gene mutations study revealed delta F508 heterozygous mutation.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Mutations for the CFTR gene should be explored in case of recurrent pancreatitis.
