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 ...

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.

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

Pancreatic Autotransplantation in Chronic Pancreatitis
World Journal of Surgery, 2003AbstractThe apancreatic state secondary to resective surgery for chronic pancreatitis is associated with a high rate of late morbidity and mortality that is due, in part, to endocrine insufficiency. Resective procedures should, therefore, be used very selectively.

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 ...
