Overview

Other diagnostic studies for autoimmune pancreatitis usually include pancreatic biopsy, which may demonstrate extensive fibrosis or lymphoplasmacytic infiltration.

Other Diagnostic Studies

  • Other diagnostic studies for autoimmune pancreatitis usually include:
    • Pancreatic biopsy, which demonstrates:
      • Extensive fibrosis
      • Lymphoplasmacytic infiltration
  • Endoscopic ultrasound-guided trucut biopsy (EUS-TCB) is usually avoided due to;[1][2]
    • Increased risk of complications
    • Limited diagnostic ability due to
      • Small sample size
      • Lack of tissue architecture
