Case reports describe unusual GI conditions

Recent case reports focused on antibiotic-induced autoimmune hepatitis, cholecystitis related to Epstein-Barr virus, and linagliptin-induced pancreatitis.


Three case reports related to gastroenterology and hepatology were recently published by Annals of Internal Medicine: Clinical Cases.

One case described doxycycline-induced autoimmune hepatitis with organizing pneumonia while another reported Epstein-Barr virus acalculous cholecystitis secondary to cystic duct node lymphadenitis. Both were published on Sept. 19.

A third case report, published on Oct. 3, described a case of linagliptin-induced pancreatitis that resolved after the medication was withdrawn and did not recur when the patient's other medications were resumed.
