CONCLUSIONS: The temporal relationship between clinical presentation of acute pancreatitis and SARS-CoV-2 infection in this patient with no precipitating risk factors for pancreatitis suggests COVID-19-associated acute pancreatitis. Our review of the literature showed a few case studies that described the presentation of idiopathic acute pancreatitis in patients with concurrent SARS-CoV-2 infection [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] . It is also important to note that while respiratory symptoms improve in patients with COVID-19 infection, these patients can still test positive for SARS-CoV-2 and are at risk for developing acute pancreatitis. ./cache/cord-267388-jz5mm91w.txt ./txt/cord-267388-jz5mm91w.txt
