Abstract

We present a case of necrotising pancreatitis following ampullary biopsy in a patient with Barrett's oesophagus. The patient needed multiple necrosectomies and several admissions to the intensive care unit. This report is only the third and most severe case of pancreatitis following ampullary biopsy, highlighting its importance as a complication.
