Inpatient examinations included 17 patients with necrosis of the pancreas (4 patients had hemorrhagic and 14 fat necrosis): synthetic lymphocyte activity was studied by the luminescent method and the erythrocyte content of adenyl nucleotides by thin-layer chromatography in the toxic phase of pancreatitis. Synthetic lymphocyte activity was found to be decreased and the ATP pool of erythrocytes exhausted in the toxic phase of pancreatitis. Intravascular laser irradiation of the blood caused recovery of lymphocyte activity and increase in the ATP content in erythrocytes.
