Acute Necrotizing Pancreatitis Presenting as Gastrocolic Fistula: A Rare Occurrence.

Tissue necrosis and ischemia are hallmarks of acute necrotizing pancreatitis, which frequently results in fatal infections. In this case, we describe a man in his 40s who had diffuse pain in the abdomen, intractable vomiting, diarrhoea, and intermittent fever. His abdominal computed tomography revealed acute pancreatitis with peripancreatic fluid collection, gastric perforation, and fistula formation between the greater curvature of the stomach and transverse colon. His upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy confirmed a gastrocolic fistula.
