Objective:
To analyze the results of pancreatic duct stenting in moderate and severe forms of pancreatitis.
Material And Methods:
Pancreatic duct stenting in 300 patients with acute pancreatitis was analyzed. Examination and treatment were carried out in accordance with national clinical guidelines for acute pancreatitis (2015).
Results:
Pancreatic duct stenting was performed in 300 patients with moderate and severe forms of pancreatitis (according to APACHE II) in the first 8-72 hours after the onset of the disease. Plastic stent sizes range from 4 to 7 cm in length and 5 to 7 Fr in diameter. Infection with pancreonecrosis occurred in 22 (7.3%) of 300 patients in the main group, and 20% of 150 patients in the control group. Mortality was 16 (5.3%) in the main group, and 24 (16%) - in the control group.
Conclusions:
Pancreatic stenting reduced infection by 3, 2 times, and mortality by 4 times. The dosage of Octreotide was personalized depending on the severity of the disease according to APACHE II.

Chronic Pancreatitis I: Introduction
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: 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:
