The authors refer their experience in the treatment of the acute pancreatitis by total parenteral nutrition. The study has been carried on twelve patients selected on the basis of prognostic factors of gravity by Ranson. The total parenteral nutrition proved to be useful as a therapy of support, causing the functional rest of the gland and assuring to the patient a caloric and proteic contribution strict necessary to overcome the serious hypercatabolic state which is determined.
