Autoimmune pancreatitis is an idiopathic inflammatory disease that produces pancreatic masses and ductal strictures. This benign disease resembles pancreatic carcinoma both clinically and radiographically. The diagnosis of autoimmune pancreatitis is challenging to make. However, accurate and timely diagnosis may preempt the misdiagnosis of cancer and decrease the number of unnecessary pancreatic resections.
自身免疫性胰腺炎是一种特发性炎症性疾病，可导致胰腺肿块和胰管狭窄。这种良性疾病在临床和影像学上均类似于胰腺癌。自身免疫性胰腺炎的诊断具有挑战性。然而，准确和及时的诊断可以避免癌症的误诊，并减少不必要的胰腺切除术数量。
