MedlinePlus: The pancreas is a large gland behind the stomach and close to the first part of the small intestine. it secretes digestive juices into the small intestine through a tube called the pancreatic duct. the pancreas also releases the hormones insulin and glucagon into the bloodstream.
pancreatitis is inflammation of the pancreas. it happens when digestive enzymes start digesting the pancreas itself. pancreatitis can be acute or chronic. either form is serious and can lead to complications.
acute pancreatitis occurs suddenly and usually goes away in a few days with treatment. it is often caused by gallstones. common symptoms are severe pain in the upper abdomen, nausea, and vomiting. treatment is usually a few days in the hospital for intravenous (iv) fluids, antibiotics, and medicines to relieve pain.
chronic pancreatitis does not heal or improve. it gets worse over time and leads to permanent damage. the most common cause is heavy alcohol use. other causes include cystic fibrosis and other inherited disorders, high levels of calcium or fats in the blood, some medicines, and autoimmune conditions. symptoms include nausea, vomiting, weight loss, and oily stools. treatment may also be a few days in the hospital for intravenous (iv) fluids, medicines to relieve pain, and nutritional support. after that, you may need to start taking enzymes and eat a special diet. it is also important to not smoke or drink alcohol.

MalaCards: Pancreatitis, also known as pancreatitis (disorder), is related to carcinoma and prostatitis. An important gene associated with Pancreatitis is SPINK1 (serine peptidase inhibitor, Kazal type 1), and among its related pathways are MAPK Signaling and Activation of cAMP-Dependent PKA. The drugs propantheline and propantheline bromide and the compounds serine and arginine have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include bone marrow, whole blood and lymph node, and related mouse phenotypes are mortality/aging and behavior/neurological. Genetics Home Reference: Hereditary pancreatitis is a genetic condition characterized by recurrent episodes of inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis). The pancreas produces enzymes that help digest food, and it also produces insulin, a hormone that controls blood sugar levels in the body. Episodes of pancreatitis can lead to permanent tissue damage and loss of pancreatic function.17 Wikipedia: Pancreatitis is inflammation of the pancreas which requires immediate medical attention and...44 more... |
