Abstract

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune multisystemic inflammatory disease. SLE-associated pancreatitis is uncommon, and pancreatic cancer in SLE is very rare. Imaging findings in SLE with pancreatitis can mimic malignancy. Endoscopic ultrasound with fine-needle aspiration/biopsy can guide in the accurate diagnosis and management of SLE-associated pancreatitis.<br /> (© 2023 The Author(s).
