Representative work: A 63-year-old man presented with fever and generalized weakness for 2 days. Computed tomography scan showed an intramural duodenal abscess and a linear radiolucent foreign body penetrating the duodenal wall. Endoscopic drainage was performed. Endoscopic ultrasound showed fluid collection in the second portion of the duodenum. The duodenal lumen was punctured with the creation of stoma using a lumen-apposing metal stent and electrocautery system. The stent was deployed, and the drainage of purulent fluid followed. The foreign body was suspected to be a wire brush bristle. The patient received intravenous antibiotics for 14 days. Follow-up images showed the resolution of the abscess Medication-induced pancreatitis is an overlooked cause of acute pancreatitis. We present an 81-year-old male patient with acute sharp epigastric pain radiating to his back, who was found to have lipase of more than 30,000 U/L. The patient denied current alcohol use. Abdominal ultrasound and abdominal computed tomography scan revealed no gallstones or biliary duct abnormalities. The patient had been taking sitagliptin for eight years. Supportive treatment with intravenous fluids, pain medications, and early feeding adequately treated his disease. With our case, we aim to increase awareness of sitagliptin-induced pancreatitis, regardless of the duration of use
