    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Hepatobiliary Surgery

    Background:

    • Acute pancreatitis is a significant gastrointestinal condition.
    • Biliary disease is a known etiological factor in acute pancreatitis.
    • Acute cholecystitis is a common related biliary tract disease.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review patients with acute pancreatitis and identify etiological factors.
    • To analyze patients treated for acute cholecystitis during the same period.
    • To compare demographic data and discuss diagnostic challenges in these patient groups.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 71 patients with acute pancreatitis.
    • Analysis of 141 patients treated for acute cholecystitis.
    • Comparison of age and sex incidence between patient cohorts.

    Main Results:

    • Biliary disease was identified as the cause in 17 out of 71 acute pancreatitis patients.
    • Demographic data for acute pancreatitis and acute cholecystitis patients were compared.
    • Diagnostic difficulties encountered in managing these conditions were discussed.

    Conclusions:

    • Biliary disease plays a notable role in the etiology of acute pancreatitis.
    • Understanding demographic patterns aids in diagnosing and managing biliary-related gastrointestinal issues.
    • Further investigation into diagnostic strategies for acute pancreatitis and cholecystitis is warranted.
