Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2007
As in previous reviews in this journal, this review is focused on the most important new observations in chronic pancreatitis made in the past year and the beginning of this year.Important observations include the following: first, the natural history and course of chronic pancreatitis; second, that smoking enhances the risk of chronic pancreatitis ...

Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 1999
An increasing number of novel mutations are associated with chronic pancreatitis. Some cause a high-penetrance, autosomal dominant type of clinical picture (eg, mutations at codons 29 and 122 of the cationic trypsinogen gene), whereas others have a low penetrance or are frequent in the general population (eg, mutations in Kazal type 1 [SPINK1] and in ...

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1910
Chronic pancreatitis is a challenging condition for a variety of reasons: it is relatively poorly understood, difficult to diagnose, complex to manage, and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The aim of this article is to outline the important aspects of this fibro-inflammatory disease, highlighting the difficulties and providing ...

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1996
Chronic pancreatitis is a serious disease with many yet unsolved problems, e.g. pathogenesis, cause of pain and treatment. Danish gastroenterologists have for many years participated actively in the investigation of the disease and have produced many internationally recognized results, especially regarding secretion physiology and pathophysiology ...

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2006
Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is characterised by pancreatic inflammation and fibrosis leading eventually to destruction of pancreatic parenchyma and loss of exocrine and endocrine function. A model of interactions between environmental triggers of pancreatic inflammation and disease susceptibility or modifying genes (including PRSS1, SPINK1 and CFTR ...

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1981
Chronic pancreatitis is marked by recurrent bouts of pain, complications of pancreatitis, and progressive exocrine and endocrine dysfunction. Objective complications are generally well managed, although they do not alter the natural or progressive course of the disease. Treatment of palpable pseudocysts is varied, and the multiple surgical alternatives

Chronic pancreatitis: A path to pancreatic cancer
Cancer Letters, 2014Chronic pancreatitis predisposes to pancreatic cancer development and both diseases share a common etiology. A central role has been proposed for the digestive enzyme-secreting acinar cell that can undergo ductal metaplasia in the inflammatory environment of pancreatitis.

Pancreatic enzymes for chronic pancreatitis
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2009The efficacy of pancreatic enzymes in reducing pain and improving steatorrhoea is debatable and the evidence base for their utility needs to be determined.To evaluate the efficacy of pancreatic enzymes in patients with chronic pancreatitis. The specific objectives were to compare the following: 1) pancreatic enzyme versus placebo; 2) different ...

Chronic Pancreatitis and Pancreatic Cancer
New England Journal of Medicine, 1993Pancreatic cancer is the 5th leading cause of death from cancer and the 11th most common cancer in the United States1; each year 24,000 people die of pancreatic cancer in this country. The incidence of pancreatic cancer increased dramatically several decades ago, but it has remained fairly stable over the past 15 years (9.1 per 100,000).
