The literature on the medical management of pancreatitis is reviewed. Reference is made to successful results obtained in 30 personal cases with a semimedicamentous protocol, in which an antipancreatitic activity in the true sense was obtained by administering aprotinine and glucagon. Eight subjects presented acute or recrudescent chronic forms, 12 pancreatitis combined with cholelithiasis, 5 secondary forms following penetrating duodenal ulcers, and 5 forms arising after stomach, duodenal or bile duct surgery. The evaluation of each case is described and the conclusion is drawn that intensive, timely medical therapy will secure resolution in the majority of cases. |
