Robotic Lateral Pancreaticojejunostomy for Chronic Pancreatitis
Published on: December 14, 2019
Abstract:
Basing on the results of long-term studies on 850 patients with different forms of chronic pancreatitis, specific variants of hypo- and hyperdiagnosis of this disease have been considered. Incidence and causes of the nonrecognition of chronic pancreatitis and complicating incretory and excretory pancreatic insufficiency, some secondary clinical pancreatogenic syndromes under out- and in-patient conditions are analysed. Errors in the determination of a type of chronic pancreatitis and the major causes of its development are noted. The practical value of various diagnostic errors in patients with chronic pancreatitis have been specified.

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.
