Isolated cases and small series of acute pancreatitis complicating viral infections have been reported. However, data on the natural history of such patients are sparse. We report a series of five patients of acute pancreatitis complicating diverse viral infections. During follow-up ranging from 6 to 36 months, two of these five patients developed evidence of chronic pancreatitis.
