The aim our study was to explore similarities differences between young patients with acute pancreatitis, a special emphasis on over 80 years age.Medical records (n = 1150) were analyzed retrospectively. Several scoring systems including Bedside index for severity Ranson's score, Harmless Physiology Chronic Health Evaluation, Balthazar Grade, Glasgow Japanese score applied at admission. Patients divided into 3 groups; group I, 706), if they aged <65 years; II, older 338), ≥65 <80 III, octogenarian 106), ≥ 0 years.In total, 1150 analyzed. Octogenarian 42, 39.6%) showed severe compared I 15, 2.1%) II 50, 14.8%, P < .001). Complications III (P Mortality rate higher 53, 50%) 8, 1.1%) 15.7%) .001).Gerontal tend have systemic local complications. rates younger patients.
