    Immune status in patients with destructive pancreatitis (DP) in long persisting disease and after performance of operative intervention was studied. Signs of secondary combined immunodeficiency were revealed, manifested by decrease of absolute quantity of all lymphocytes populations by 20-70% and concentration of immunoglobulins in blood serum by more than 40%. Conventional therapy did not influence indexes of immunogramm while using immunoglobulin for intravenous injection (IGII), besides saturation of blood by antibodies, the complement activities are increasing as well as indexes of the phagocytes functional state. Application of IGII had promoted the decrease of the patients state severity, normalization of clinico-laboratory data, causing the mortality lowering (P < 0.05), decrease of the treatment duration of survived patients (P < 0.05).

    Acute Pancreatitis II: Clinical Manifestations and Management

    Acute pancreatitis presents a complex medical emergency characterized by rapid onset inflammation of the pancreas, demanding timely diagnosis and management to prevent complications. The condition primarily manifests through severe upper abdominal pain that often radiates to the back. This pain intensifies following the consumption of fatty foods. Accompanying symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal distention, fever, dyspnea, cyanosis, and jaundice can vary in intensity but significantly...

    Acute Pancreatitis I: Introduction

    Pancreatitis is inflammation of the pancreas, an organ located behind the stomach. It can be either acute or chronic.
    Acute pancreatitis is characterized by rapid inflammation of the pancreas, often caused by factors like gallstone blockage or excessive alcohol consumption. Chronic pancreatitis, on the other hand, is a slow, progressive inflammation that may result from long-term alcohol abuse, obstructions in the pancreatic duct, or genetic factors.
    The causes of acute pancreatitis include:
    Acute Pancreatitis I: Introduction01:25

    Acute Pancreatitis I: Introduction

    Acute pancreatitis is the sudden inflammation of the pancreas caused by the early activation of digestive enzymes, leading to the autodigestion of pancreatic tissue. This results in local inflammation and, in severe cases, systemic complications.EtiologyUnderstanding the underlying causes is crucial, as identifying the etiology guides treatment and anticipates complications. Acute pancreatitis can be triggered by various factors, typically grouped into the following clinical categories.Biliary...
    Acute Pancreatitis II: Pathophysiology01:21

    Acute Pancreatitis II: Pathophysiology

    The pathophysiology of acute pancreatitis centers on injury to pancreatic acinar cells, which initiates a cascade of harmful intracellular events.This injury leads to premature activation of trypsinogen to trypsin in the pancreas. Trypsin then activates other digestive enzymes, such as chymotrypsin, elastase, and phospholipase A2, which begin breaking down pancreatic tissue. The resulting autodigestion causes local inflammation, tissue swelling, hemorrhage, and fat necrosis.Injured acinar cells...

    Chronic Pancreatitis I: Introduction

    The pancreas, an elongated and flat gland situated behind the stomach, serves a vital function in digesting food and managing blood sugar levels.
    Pancreatitis is the inflammation of the pancreas, which occurs when the immune system becomes active and causes swelling, pain, and disruptions in organ function. Pancreatitis can manifest as either an acute or chronic condition.
    Acute pancreatitis arises suddenly and lasts for a brief duration, while chronic pancreatitis is a long-term affliction...
    Chronic Pancreatitis I: Introduction01:25

    Chronic Pancreatitis I: Introduction

    Chronic pancreatitis is a long-standing, relapsing inflammation of the pancreas, characterized by irreversible damage to the gland. It results in progressive destruction of the pancreatic parenchyma, fibrosis, and eventual loss of both exocrine and endocrine function. The disease may evolve gradually after multiple episodes of acute pancreatitis or develop independently.EtiologyChronic pancreatitis can arise from a variety of causes:Alcohol use is the leading cause, accounting for 70–80% of...
