Acute Adenoviral Gastroenteritis Complicated by Interstitial Edematous Pancreatitis in an Adult Patient: A Rare Clinical Case With a Multidisciplinary Approach

Abstract

Adenovirus F (type 40/41) is one of the most significant viral etiological agents of acute gastroenteritis in young children. This is a significant and growing cause of pediatric gastroenteritis worldwide, particularly in children under the age of five. However, in rare cases, it may also lead to clinically significant illness in adults. The clinical case we present describes the course of acute adenoviral gastroenteritis complicated with acute pancreatitis and a pronounced intoxication syndrome in a 24-year-old woman from Ukraine.
