Pancreatic disease in the elderly
Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology, 2002Pancreatic diseases occur in patients of every age. Older individuals suffer more often from gallstone related acute pancreatitis, ischaemic and idiopathic acute pancreatitis, whereas alcohol-induced acute pancreatitis occurs only in a minority of cases. Similarly, alcohol-related chronic pancreatitis in elderly people is rare and late-onset idiopathic

Genetics and pancreatic disease
Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2002The recognition that variations in the DNA sequence of key genes predispose individuals to acute pancreatitis, chronic pancreatitis, and pancreatic cancer represents one of the greatest breakthroughs in pancreas research. This review highlights recent progress in understanding mutations in the cationic trypsinogen gene, the pancreatic secretory trypsin

Cystic lesions of the pancreas are common and increasingly detected in the primary care setting. Some patients have a low risk for developing a malignancy and others have a high risk and need further testing and interventions.Pancreatic cysts may be intraductal mucinous neoplasms, mucinous cystic neoplasms, serous cystadenomas, solid pseudopapillary ...

Pancreas, 1998
Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is a noninvasive diagnostic modality capable of producing high-quality images of the biliary tree and pancreatic duct. We evaluated the MRCP capability of depicting the normal pancreatic duct and, based on data achieved, studied the usefulness in the pathologic pancreatic duct. MRCP was performed in 42

Diagnosis of Chronic Pancreatic Disease
Clinical Biochemistry, 1976The diagnosis of pancreatic disease is difficult. The first step is clinical suspicion, based on the symptoms and signs. If pancreatic disease is suspected, investigation is necessary to prove this diagnosis. Investigation aims to answer two questions: a) is there pancreatic disease and b) if so, what type?

Acute pancreatitis is an acute inflammatory process of the pancreas and is potentially reversible. It is characterized by oedema and necrosis of peripancreatic fat and may progress to necrosis of glandular and surrounding tissue. Activation of pancreatic enzymes leads to pancreatic autodigestion and systemic effects.
