Pancreatic duct pressure in chronic pancreatitis
The American Journal of Surgery, 1982The wide variety of surgical procedures available for the relief of pain in patients with chronic pancreatitis attests to a lack of understanding of the precise mechanisms responsible for the onset of pain in this condition. In the development of surgical procedures designed to "decompress" the pancreatic duct in chronic pancreatitis, it has been ...

Annual Review of Physiology, 1994
The duct cell is a minor cell type of the pancreas, which comprises 10% of the cells and 4% of the volume of the pancreas (39). The predominant acinar cells are much denser than the other cell types because of their large content of zymogen granules (145), thus the duct cells contain less than 4% of the pancreatic protein.

The pancreatic duct mucosal barrier
The American Journal of Surgery, 1979The main pancreatic duct in cats possesses a relatively strong barrier to the diffusion of bicarbonate ions (HCO3-). We studied some of the characteristics of this barrier by perfusing the duct with a solution similar in composition to pancreatic juice before and after exposing the duct mucosa to various test agents. The difference in net flux of HCO3-

Embryology of the Pancreatic Duct System
Digestion, 1999<i>Background/Aims:</i> It has been suggested that the distal portion of the dorsal pancreatic duct and the ventral pancreatic duct usually merge into the main pancreatic duct, and the proximal portion of the dorsal pancreatic duct becomes the accessory pancreatic duct.

Pancreatic Intercalated Duct [PDF]
, 2010 The narrow secretory ductuli in the acinar centres (cf. Figs. 95 and 96) continue into small intercalated ducts that lead out of the acini into the connective tissue stroma and further converge to form the intralobular and interlobular excretory ducts. Striated ducts, such as those present in other salivary glands (cf. Fig.

Ultrasonic evaluation of the pancreatic duct
Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, 1980AbstractIn a prospective ultrasound study of 253 patients, the lumen of the normal pancreatic duct of Wirsung could be demonstrated in 82% of the patients. The mean diameter of the normal pancreatic duct (of Wirsung) was 1.3 mm. The duct of Santorini occasionally could be demonstrated.

Management of Pancreatic Duct Stones
Current Gastroenterology Reports, 2019Pancreatic duct stones are sequela of chronic pancreatitis. They can cause pancreatic duct obstruction which is the most important cause of pain in chronic pancreatitis. Stone resolution has shown to improve pain. The goal of this review is to highlight recent endoscopic and surgical advancements in treatment of pancreatic duct stones.Stone ...

Assessment of Pancreatic Duct Strictures
Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America, 1995It should be fairly clear that the evaluation of pancreatic duct strictures is complex. Short of surgical resection, there is no gold standard that will provide an etiological diagnosis unless cancer is found on a biopsy specimen. To complicate matters further, much of the literature was generated in reference to differentiating between pancreatic ...

MASSIVE PANCREATIC DUCT HAEMORRHAGE
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1996Direct fistula between the splenic artery and the pancreatic duct is briefly reviewed. The literature indicates that such a fistula is almost always due to a pancreatic artery aneurysm. Because of diagnostic difficulties, a variety of operations have been performed on these patients prior to arriving at the correct diagnosis.
