ABSTRACT
Acute necrotizing pancreatitis after kidney transplantation is a rare, but serious complication. We report a case of patient who was developed acute pancreatitis after cadaveric kidney transplantation with several causative factors: viral infection (Cytomegalovirus, Varicella zoster virus), usage of immunosuppressant, gallbladder stones, and previous peritoneal dialysis history. Cytomegalovirus infection was suspected as major etiologic factor of this case, but other factors would have a complex effect on development of acute pancreatitis.
