Leptospirosis is an emerging zoonosis of worldwide importance. Its distribution is closely linked to hydrometric conditions. It is characterized by a wide clinical range, from the subclinical form, or one with few symptoms; which resolves spontaneously, to the multi-visceral form, known as icterrohemorrhagic disease or Weil's disease, with a lethal risk. All organs can be affected but with variable frequency. Pancreatic involvement is not well documented. We describe a 45-year-old man with Weil's disease associated with acute necrotizing pancreatitis. The evolution was favorable but required a three-week stay in the intensive care unit.
钩端螺旋体病是一种具有全球重要性的新发人畜共患病。其分布与水文条件密切相关。它的临床范围广泛,从亚临床形式或症状轻微的形式(可自发缓解)到多脏器形式,即黄疸出血型疾病或韦尔氏病,存在致死风险。所有器官都可能受到影响,但频率各不相同。胰腺受累的记录并不充分。我们描述了一名45岁患有韦尔氏病并伴有急性坏死性胰腺炎的男性患者。病情进展良好,但需要在重症监护病房住院三周。
