A 9-vear-old girl presented with recurrent abdominal pain. Investigations failed to show any of the demonstrable causes of pancreatitis, but she was found to have pancreatic calcifications with the help of the plain abdominal x-ray, abdominal ultrasound and abdominal C—T scan. Pancreatic calcifications are virtually pathognomonic of chronic pancreatitis. We report this case and review related literatures briefly.
