Özet
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is characterised by inflammatory
destruction of the gland due to early activation of the
pancreatic proteolytic enzymes. Drug-induced AP
accounts for only 0.1-2 % of AP.1 One of these drugs is
dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP-4i). Association
between AP and Sitagliptin, a DPP-4i, was initially
described in a transgenic rat model.2 We aim to present
a case of AP in a diabetic elderly, which was likely
associated with Sitagliptin treatment.
