Acute aortic dissection can result in fatal conditions when associated with organ malperfusion. A rare complication of aortic dissection with organ malperfusion is ischemic pancreatitis with cholecystitis. Here, we present the case of acute type B aortic dissection complicated by concurrent acute ischemic pancreatitis and acalculous cholecystitis. Prompt diagnosis and specific multidisciplinary treatment are crucial to improving patient outcomes in cases of visceral ischemia.

“…The most common site seems to be the stomach, but there is not enough data to support this. Beside the conservative treatment, the authors recommend endoscopic intervention (potential clipping of bleeding vessels, stenting) as first choice of treatment and surgical intervention when endoscopic management is impossible (gastrectomy) [23,[27][28][29].…”

Multidisciplinary Management of Acute and Chronic Pancreatitis

Pancreatic pseudocysts frequently occur in the context of acute or chronic pancreatitis and seldom appear as a post-surgical outcome or trauma. Complicated pancreatic pseudocysts represent extremely rare entities but still life-threatening situations, including infection, hemorrhage, rupture, pseudoaneurysms, pancreatic fistulas, obstructions, and splenic complications. Premature diagnosis, based on transabdominal ultrasonography or computed tomography, is crucial for the early therapeutic approach. Conservative treatment, surgical and endoscopic intervention consist the therapeutic options. Thus, management of the complicated pseudocysts demands a multidisciplinary team eligible to cope with complications that might even occur due to the intervention. Pancreatic pseudocysts represent a challenge for clinical doctors.
