Overview
Pathophysiology
Pathogenesis
Genetics
- [Disease name] is transmitted in [mode of genetic transmission] pattern.
- Genes involved in the pathogenesis of [disease name] include [gene1], [gene2], and [gene3].
- The development of [disease name] is the result of multiple genetic mutations.
Associated Conditions
- Autoimmune pancreatitis may be associated with systemic autoimmune conditions such as:
Gross Pathology
- On gross pathology, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
Microscopic Pathology
- Microscopic findings suggestive of autoimmune pancreatitis may include:[1]
Type 1 AIP:
- A lymphoplasmacytic sclerosing pancreatitis
- >10 IgG4-positive cells with at least two of the following
- Periductal lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate
- Obliterative phlebitis
- Acinar fibrosis
Type 2 AIP or Idiopathic duct-centric pancreatitis (IDCP):
- Pancreatic duct: Granulocytic epithelial lesion
- Pancreatic parenchyma: Minimal IgG4-positive cells
