title: [Acute pancreatitis after treatment by celecoxib].
abstract: Drug-induced pancreatitis injury due to celecoxib, a first generation Cox-2 inhibitor, has been rarely reported. We describe one case of severe pancreatitis after treatment with celecoxib for 3 months in a woman. No aetiology has been found for pancreatitis. The role of celecoxib in the etiology of colitis was considered probable. This report and a few other cases in the literature suggest to seek a pancreatitis in the event of pains abdominal when there is a catch of the cyclooxygenase-2 selective non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug inhibitor.
