it may be difficult to find the answer there........ so far as i know acute pancreatitis causes proteolytic damage to the blood vessels around it including portal vessels and spllenic and superior mesenterec vessels. it can cause pseudocyst of vessels, inflammation of vessel wall and that way even thrombosis of the portal, smv and splenic veins. this can be so severe sometimes that it results in gastric varices and even hemetemesis. in addition acute pancreatitis has also been known to cause perispllenitis and even spleenic infarct and rupture in severe cases.
