  • Title: Pancreaticoportal fistula: a rare complication of chronic pancreatitis.
    Author: Van Steenbergen W, Ponette E.
    Journal: Gastrointest Radiol; 1990; 15(4):299-300. PubMed ID: 2210199.
    Abstract:
    We report a patient with chronic alcoholic calcifying pancreatitis in whom a pancreaticoportal fistula was demonstrated by endoscopic retrograde pancreatography. No complications could be ascribed to this fistula except for thrombosis of the portal, splenic, and superior mesenteric veins. An expectant conservative management was adopted. A short review of the six other cases reported in the literature is presented.
