Abstract
A 12-year-old girl presented with acute abdominal pain and vomiting. Raised serum amylase with the radiological findings supported a diagnosis of acute pancreatitis. Subsequent investigation confirmed celiac disease. Very few children with celiac disease present with an acute pancreatitis. The mechanism by which celiac disease is associated with pancreatitis is discussed here.
