Abstract
- Polyarthritis and panniculitis can be the presenting manifestations of pancreatitis. Early recognition of this triad is critical because of the high mortality rate from pancreatic disease when the diagnosis is delayed. Although this association can be seen at any age, its frequency peaks around the fifth decade of life. We report this case because of the rarity of the association and the high morbidity and mortality in these patients. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
