Abstract：
:A case of pancreatitis that occurred as a complication of a vaso-occlusive crisis in a child with sickle cell anemia is reported. We encourage others to consider pancreatitis as a cause for abdominal pain in children with multisystem diseases, particularly those that may cause ischemic organ injury such as sickle cell anemia.
