[Hemocoagulation disorders in patients with acute pancreatitis]
Abstract:
62 patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) were examined in order to determine hemocoagulation disorders. The obtained results showed that the patients developed the consumptive coagulopathy with high levels of D-dimer, activation and exhaustion of antithrombin III (AT III). The development of hemocoagulation disturbances in patients with severe AP was confirmed through decrease of activity of AT III up to 68% and high level of D-dimer>693 ng/ml.

Acute Pancreatitis I: Introduction
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:
