    We present a case of acute pancreatitis during pregnancy, associated with hyperlipidemia. The patient, 23 years old in 36 g. w., was hospitalized at the Clinic of Obstetrics and Gynecology with nausea, multiple vomitting, persistent abdominal pain and febrility. Because of the clinical apperance of acute pancreatitis Ceaserean Section was performed with subsequent revision of the abdominal cavity, necrectomy of the pancreas, laparostoma, lavage, drainage, nutritional yienostoma. Intubation with artificial pulmonary ventilation and high volume continuous veno-venous haemofiltration (HV CVVH) was performed because of the development of polyorgan insufficiency and ARDS. After the procedure the patient condition became stable. After four months of hospitalisation, she was discharged from hospital with stable vital signs.

    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...

    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...

    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...
    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 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:

    Chronic Pancreatitis II: Pathophysiology

    Chronic pancreatitis is a progressive and irreversible inflammation of the pancreas, most often caused by long-term alcohol abuse, but it can also be related to ductal obstruction, smoking, or genetic factors.Chronic pancreatitis occurs when the pancreas is repeatedly exposed to harmful agents like alcohol, smoking, ductal obstruction, or genetic predisposition. These factors lead to the release of toxic metabolites and inflammatory cytokines, sustaining chronic inflammation in the pancreatic...
