[Change of external and internal secretory pancreatic function in pancreatitis].

In 49 patients with an acute pancreatitis and 91 - with chronic pancreatitis were studied external and internal secretory pancreatic function in remote terms after the treatment. In 48 (52.7%) patients, suffering chronic pancreatitis, the investigated indexes were studied in dynamic before and after the operation. There was established the disorders of external secretory pancreatic function in an acute pancreatitis of severe stage and noninfected pancreonecrosis in patients, to whom direct operative pancreatic interventions were not performed. Indications for conduction of internal drainage of the pancreatic ducts, taking into account data of preoperative instrumental examination and initial activity of fecal elastase-1, were substantiated. The advantages of Beger and Frey operations, in comparison with resecting procedures, were proved because of lesser occurrence of the pancreatic functions disorders.
