Chronic pancreatitis with pancreatic duct stones complicated by acute obstructive suppurative pancreatic ductitis: Report of a case and review of the literature

AOSPD is a rare condition attributed to its low incidence and the challenges associated with diagnosis. AOSPD should be considered in patients with chronic pancreatitis and duct obstruction who present with fever or abdominal pain. Early duct drainage is crucial; however, standardized diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols are still lacking. Further research is warranted.
