Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The goal of this observational, retrospective study is to learn about cancer risk in autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do patients with AIP have higher incidence of cancer in comparison to general population? * What is the overall prevalence of cancer in AIP patients? * What are the characteristics of AIP patients associated with the incidence of cancer?
