She went to the emergency department after presenting with progressive dyspnoea. With a diagnosis of bilateral pneumonia, she was admitted to the ward and received treatment with dexamethasone and remdesivir. The patient's breathing worsened, and she was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), where orotracheal intubation was performed and prone-supine manoeuvres were started. In addition, hyperimmune plasma and tocilizumab were added to the treatment.</p><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">After an initially good respiratory progression, on the 12th° day of admission to the ICU the patient experienced a distributive <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">shock</span>. On examination, she had abdominal distension, absence of peristalsis and a feeling of fullness in the epigastrium. An emergency computed tomography (CT) scan was performed, which showed the presence of pneumoperitoneum and changes suggestive of acute pancreatitis in the pancreatic uncinate process. Amylase and lipase levels were normal (37 IU/L and 42 IU/L, respectively). An emergency exploratory laparotomy was performed and necro-haemorrhagic pancreatitis in an advanced stage of development was confirmed. During the following hours, the patient developed progressive haemodynamic instability and multi-organ failure.
