This paper reports three cases of acute pancreatitis that occurred after repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm. The aneurysms were ruptured in two patients and asymptomatic in one. No patient had biliary disease or history of pancreatitis or alcohol abuse. Two of the patients required operation for drainage and debridement; one died. The etiology and diagnosis are discussed.

Three families with abnormal insulinemia have been reported in Japan and sequencing analysis revealed that they had the same point mutation in one allele of the insulin genes causing [Leu A3]insulin. To estimate whether or not this same mutation came from a common ancestor we determined the sequence of the hypervariable region 5'-flanking the third [Leu A3]insulin allele (insulin Tochigi). This region is composed of 42 tandem repeating oligonucleotides, is 599 base pairs long and the sequence is 5' cdi jfa faa aba baa aaa fab aaa caa aac aca cba aaf ccb 3' (abbreviated as a = ACAGGGGTGTGGGG; b = ACAGGGGTCTGGGG; c = ACAGGGGTCCTGGGG; d = ACAGGGGTCCGGGG; f = ACAGGGGTCCCGGGG; i = ACAGGGTCCTGGGG; j = ACAGGGGTGTGAGG). The length of this region is different from those of the first and second [Leu A3]insulin alleles (insulin Wakayama I,II). This difference suggests either that insulin Tochigi and insulin Wakayama I,II are not of the same origin, or that three cases of [Leu A3]insulin in Japan have the same ancestor but recombination has occurred in this region at some point in the past.

This paper reports one case of pancreatitis and duodenal obstruction that occurred following repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm. The patient had neither antecedent biliary or pancreatic disease nor alcohol abuse. The presentation was mild and the patient had an uneventful recovery without surgery. We present this uncommon entity and review the available literature.
