Autoimmune pancreatitis, (AIP) is a rare inflammatory disease of this organ distinguished by a specific clinical course and a good response to glucocorticosteroids. The disease may be limited to the pancreas itself or be part of a multi-organ autoimmune inflammatory process. The basis of diagnosis are radiological image techniques, enabling the location of organ changes, and endoscopic ultrasound examination, giving the possibility of material collection for cytological examination, supplemented by determination of the concentration of G4 subclass immunoglobulins. We report a case of autoimmune pancreatitis mimicking malignant tumor of this organ in a 79- year-old male patient.
