The authors present a case of a 16-year-old female patient with acute pancreatitis, being a complication of blunt abdominal trauma. This case is considered as interesting in view of the aetiology, rarely taken into account in clinical differentiation. A review is also done of the literature on this subject which suggests the possibility of such aetiology in 20% of cases of acute pancreatitis in children and youths.
