lNTRODUCTlON

Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is accepted as a unique clinical entity worldwide. The prevalence rate of AIP in Japan was 2.2 per 100000 people[1]. Using this prevalence, it was estimated that the number of AIP patients in China would be approximately 29 thousand[2]. A large multicenter study from 10 different countries reported that therapy with steroid could significantly induce clinical remission in 99% of type 1 AIP and 92% of type 2 AIP patients[3]. However, few studies have reported the role of steroid therapy in AIP complicated by gastric varices. In this study, we summarize the effects of steroid therapy in a case of AIP complicated by gastric varices.

No special previous medical history was reported.

CASE PRESENTATlON

Chief complaints

Based on these findings, autoimmune pancreatitis complicated by gastric varices was identified.

History of present illness

Type 1 AIP is considered a pancreatic manifestation of IgG4 related disease, which also includes a few extra-pancreatic organ diseases such as salivary sclerosingsialadenitis, interstitial nephritis, sclerosing cholangitis lung nodules, mediastinal fibrosis, adenopathy and chronic periaortitis[5,6]. The classical histopathological findings are dense lymphoplasmacytic infiltration, IgG4-positive plasma cell infiltration, storiform fibrosis, obliterative phlebitis and fibrosis without granulocytic infiltration[7]. A large multicenter study found that Type 1 AIP often presents at an older age and is more likely than type 2 AIP to manifest in men[3]. A systematic review in China found that the male to female ratio of type 1 AIP was 4.5:1. The main symptoms in type 1 AIP patients are jaundice (75%), abdominal pain (65%), and weight loss (42%)[2]. In this case report, the patient was a woman, and the main clinical presentation was up abdominal pain and weight loss.

Personal and family history

No special personal or family histories were found.

Physical examination

Epigastric tenderness without rebound or guarding was found. No other positive signs were found.

Laboratory examinations

Routine blood tests showed a hemoglobin (Hb) of 81 g/L (N:113-151 g/L), red blood cell of 2.88 × 10/L(N: 3.68-5.13 × 10/L). Other tests, such as white blood cell, platelet and neutrophil were all normal.Serum protein electrophoresis showed an increased incidence of polyclonal α1-globulinemia of 4.7% (N:1.1-3.7%), α2-globulinemia of 15.2% (N: 8.5-14.5%) and γ-globulinemia of 26.1% (N: 9.2–18.2%). Other blood chemistry parameters such as tumor markers, liver and kidney function, coagulation tests and amylase levels were all within normal limits. Serology for hepatitis B and C and autoimmune serology,including anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody and antinuclear antibody were all negative. The serum level of IgG4 was detected and was significantly elevated at 3670 mg/L (N: 80-1400 mg/L).

Imaging examinations

Abdominal computed tomography (CT) revealed a diffusely enlarged pancreas with a capsule-like rim,an obstructed splenic vein, slight splenomegaly and collateral vessels from the gastric fundus(Figure 1A). Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography showed the irregular expansion of pancreatic duct in the neck and body of pancreas, and the swelling of pancreas (Figure 1B). Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) revealed that gastric varices in the partial gastric fundus and the red-color sign were positive (Figure 1C).

OUTCOME AND FOLLOW-UP

Two months after the initial treatment, an abdominal CT showed that the swelling in the pancreas had improved (Figure 2A). The obstructed splenic vein, splenomegaly and gastric varices with positive redcolor signs also showed a slight improvement (Figure 2B). The serum IgG4 had decreased to 1370 mg/L.Five months after the initial treatment, abdominal CT showed that the swelling of the pancreas, the obstructed splenic vein and splenomegaly had further improved (Figure 3A). EGD also showed that the gastric varices had improved, and the red-color signs were negative (Figure 3B). The serum IgG4 decreased to a normal level at 677mg/L. One year after the initial therapy, an abdominal CT showed that the pancreas, splenic vein and spleen were restored to the normal level (Figure 4A). EGD showed that the gastric vertices had disappeared (Figure 4B). The serum IgG4 had decreased to its normal level of 566 mg/L. Finally, the patient was asked to stop steroid therapy. After three years of follow-up, the patient did not experience a recurrent abdominal pain, and she did not have melena.

DlSCUSSlON

The patient suffered from symptoms of mild abdominal discontinuous pain for approximately four months, accompanied by abdominal distension and poor appetite. The patient’s intake was decreased by almost 1/2 compared with normal, and induced a weight loss of 5 kg. In the last month, the symptoms of abdominal pain and distension were worse than before, accompanied by fatigue, but without nausea and vomiting.

Gastric varices are a relatively common complication in chronic pancreatitis[8]. Chronic pancreatitis leads to splenic vein obstruction and induces sinistral portal hypertension. Finally, gastric varices are formed along the fundus and the greater curvature of the stomach, since the blood flow in the short gastric veins or the gastroepiploic vein is significantly increased. However, AIP complicated by gastric varices has rarely been reported. Ishikawa[9] retrospectively reviewed 54 patients who met the international disease diagnostic criteria for AIP and found that 24 of the patients had AIP complicated by peripancreatic vascular involvement. Among these, only one patient (1/54, 1.9%) had gastric varices,22 patients (22/54, 40.7%) had splenic vein occlusion or stenosis, and 13 patients (13/54, 24.1%) had superior mesenteric-portal vein occlusion or stenosis. In this case, the patient was diagnosed with AIP complicated by splenic vein obstruction and gastric varices.

CONCLUSlON

In summary, we reported a case of AIP complicated by gastric varices in this study. After 1 year of steroid therapy, the patient did not have any symptoms. The pancreas was significantly improved, and the gastric varices disappeared.

Oral administration of 24 mg/d methylprednisolone was started for two weeks. Then the treatment was tapered by 4 mg every two weeks and until a maintenance dose of 8 mg/d was reached.

Steroids are considered a risk factor for gastrointestinal bleeding. More studies are needed to evaluate the merits and disadvantages of using steroid therapy for AIP complicated by peripancreatic vascular involvement, especially gastric varices[10]. Ishikawa and colleagues reported that vascular lesions were significantly improved in 14 of 16 patients who received steroid therapy for AIP complicated by peripancreatic vascular involvement[9]. In contrast, the vascular lesions were exacerbated in 2 of 4 patients who were not treated with steroid therapy after two years. These results indicated that steroid therapy was meaningful. Furthermore, Goto and colleagues reported 3 cases of AIP complicated by gastric varices[11]. In case 1 without splenomegaly, steroid therapy significantly improved the enlarged pancreas and the splenic vein was reperfused. Finally, the gastric varices disappeared after six months of therapy. However, in cases 2 and 3 with splenomegaly, steroid therapy was not very effective. One case showed that steroid therapy only improved AIP but had no influence on gastric varices. In another case, it was found that steroid therapy had no role in either AIP or gastric varices after five months of therapy. These cases revealed that the reason for these patients’ congestive splenomegaly might have been the long duration for which they were affected by sinistral portal hypertension, and the splenomegaly finally led to irreversible spleen vein obstruction[11,12]. In this case, at the time of diagnosis, the patient had a diffusely enlarged pancreas with a capsule-like rim, an obstructed splenic vein, slight splenomegaly and gastric varices. After 1 year of steroid therapy, the capsule-like rim and gastric varices had disappeared, the spleen vein was reperfused, and the spleen was reduced.

傳統(tǒng)的課堂教學(xué)模式主要為師傳生受，然而在“互聯(lián)網(wǎng)+”時代背景下，學(xué)生可以輕松通過網(wǎng)絡(luò)獲取各種與教學(xué)內(nèi)容相關(guān)的信息，通過對這些信息進(jìn)行一定程度的整理和掌握，就與教師掌握的程度不會有太大差距。 如果教師仍然沿襲傳統(tǒng)的教學(xué)模式，學(xué)生的興趣和積極性都很難被調(diào)動起來。此外，互聯(lián)網(wǎng)強(qiáng)大的資源信息檢索功能使得教師稍有疏漏，就可能引來學(xué)生的質(zhì)疑，影響其在學(xué)生中的威信，導(dǎo)致教學(xué)活動受到影響，甚至可能使教師失去不斷提升自己專業(yè)發(fā)展的動力。

格雷在他1970年出版的《國際旅行國際貿(mào)易》一書中，提出了休閑旅行（即旅游）的兩種驅(qū)動力：一種是內(nèi)在的“推動”因素（push factor）、一種是存在于異地的“拉動”因素（pull factor）［1］106－107。按照他的解釋，“推動”因素是人類的一種內(nèi)在的本質(zhì)特征，它催發(fā)著人們離開熟悉的環(huán)境和事物而前往異域他鄉(xiāng)去觀賞令人激動的異域文化和事物的欲望②。
