A total of 107 patients with chronic pancreatitis from the London area seen between 1968 and 1973 have been reviewed; they comprised 30 with calcific pancreatitis and 77 with chronic or chronic relapsing pancreatitis without calcification. The commonest clinical features were pain, diabetes, malabsorption, and peptic ulcer. Alcohol was a probable aetiology in nearly half the cases, a different finding from those of previous surveys and possibly associated with the increased consumption of alcohol in England in the last 20 years.
对1968年至1973年间在伦敦地区就诊的107例慢性胰腺炎患者进行了回顾性研究;其中30例为钙化性胰腺炎,77例为无钙化的慢性或慢性复发性胰腺炎。最常见的临床特征是疼痛、糖尿病、吸收不良和消化性溃疡。近半数病例中酒精可能是病因,这一发现与之前的调查不同,可能与英国过去20年酒精消费量增加有关。
