Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is a steroid-responsive inflammatory disease of the pancreas. Few studies investigated pancreatic exocrine function (PEF) in patients suffering from AIP and no definitive data are available on the effect of steroids in PEF recovery. Aim of the study is the evaluation of severe pancreatic insufficiency (sPEI) prevalence in AIP at clinical onset and after steroid treatment.
