Pancreatic cystic lesions with atypical steroid response should be carefully managed in cases of autoimmune pancreatitis

摘要

Background and Aim: Pancreatic cysts have been reported in cases with autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) and are often treated by corticosteroid; however, their response to steroid has not been determined fully. We aimed to see the incidence and steroid response of pancreatic cysts and the features of cysts without proper response in cases with AIP.
