A 51 years old woman came to the emergency room with acute onset abdominal hematomas. She complained of vague abdominal pain without preceding trauma. Two large hematomas were present, one in the infra-umbilical region and one in the right flank, corresponding to Cullen's and Grey Turner's sign, respectively. Laboratory analysis and CT confirmed the diagnosis of necrotising pancreatitis.
