Acute Pancreatitis as the Initial Manifestation in 2 Cases of COVID-19 in Wuhan, China

摘要

Clinical data on coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) with pancreatic injury are extremely limited. An acute manifestation of acute pancreatitis in COVID-19 has not been reported. We describe here 2 cases of COVID-19 with acute pancreatitis as the initial manifestation in Wuhan, China. Patient 1 died despite maximal mechanical ventilatory support and circulation support, while patient 2 was finally discharged after showing significant improvement. Low T cells in peripheral blood may indicate a poor outcome.
