AbstractA 64-year-old man with a history of diabetes and gallstones was admitted to our institution with suspected pancreatic malignancy. Computed tomography (CT) revealed multiple pancreatic cysts and massive ascites, and endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) revealed a 28×27-mm hypoechoic mass in the pancreatic head. An EUS-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy was performed, and there were no malignant findings. Based on the test results and imaging findings, type 1 autoimmune pancreatitis was suspected. The patient was administered 30 mg of prednisolone daily. After 11 days, CT revealed that the pancreatic cysts and ascites had reduced in size.
