Pregnancy with acute pancreatitis

Acute pancreatitis is an acute chemical inflammation caused by pancreatic digestive enzymes being activated to self-digest the pancreatic tissue. It is not only a local inflammatory lesion of the pancreas, but also a systemic disease involving multiple organs. Acute pancreatitis during pregnancy is rare, but it is very harmful to the mother and child.
